Isaiah Stewart Sidelined Indefinitely With Left Calf Strain

Pistons center Isaiah Stewart is out indefinitely with a left calf strain. Coach J.B. Bickerstaff confirmed the injury, noting Stewart had been playing through discomfort. The injury removes him from All-Defensive team contention, as he can no longer meet the 20-minute participation requirement for the remaining games. Detroit plans to manage his recovery cautiously to ensure he is healthy for the postseason, relying on Jalen Duren and Paul Reed to anchor the middle in his absence.
