    Cody Williams probably is the most likely with the highest floor. Would be ecstatic to get him.

    Pistons’ Isaiah Stewart punched Suns’ Drew Eubanks in face prior to Wednesday’s game: Sources

    Detroit Pistons power forward Isaiah Stewart punched Phoenix Suns power forward Drew Eubanks in the face in the back tunnels of Footprint Center prior to the teams’ matchup Wednesday, sources briefed on the matter confirmed to The Athletic. It’s unclear what sparked the altercation.

    According to those sources, both Stewart and Eubanks were going chest-to-chest before a swing to Eubanks’ lip area connected. Police needed to get involved to separate the two and were called to the scene. Stewart left the arena following the altercation with members of the Pistons’ staff. The NBA is expected to receive footage to review.

    “The attack on Drew Eubanks was unprovoked, and acts of violence such as this are unacceptable,” a Suns spokesperson said. “We unequivocally support Drew, and will continue to work with local law enforcement and the NBA.”

    During the matchup between the two teams back in Detroit on Nov. 5, both Stewart and Eubanks were extra aggressive with one another and were verbally sparring throughout the game.

    Stewart has missed the last several games with an ankle injury. He joined the Pistons on their West Coast swing to prepare for a return to play after the All-Star break. Eubanks was out warming up following the altercation and two hours before the game.

    This story will be updated.

    Stewart needs to grow up. Should be suspended at least 10 games. Hurting his chances of really making something of his game.

    Grizzlies in close game with Rockets. Memphis can reduce their odds against Portland's draft pick.

    Eubanks gets last laugh on Isaiah Stewart. Suns up 30 at halftime. Drew has 2 buckets, 2 boards, 2 steals

    I know team defence is a major concern but the way Haliburton runs the Pacers makes for such a fun and fast game. Reminds me of Nash.

    Pacers should've gone for OG as well. They had the assets. OG + Pascal in that lineup would've been sweet.

    Yes! Zubac just elbowed Draymond in the face. Every center in the league should do this.

    Weird thing is if it had happened ON the court, different story.

    Which is why I am curious why no one ever escalates to Last Boy Scout style.

    That is weird. Not assault if it's on the court during the game.
