- The Detroit Pistons will be without Isaiah Stewart for at least the next 10-14 days
- He suffered an ankle sprain during Sunday’s victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder at Little Caesars Arena

Bottom Line: Back at it tomorrow
The Pistons find themselves in a daunting season, securing only six wins and facing 41 losses, making it one of the most challenging campaigns for any NBA franchise in recent memory.
