NBA bans 4 from Pistons-Hornets brawl, Stewart for 7 games
Detroit Pistons forward Isaiah Stewart was suspended seven games by the NBA and three others from a brawl between Detroit and Charlotte were also banned by the league on Wednesday.
Stewart's punishment came for leaving the bench area, aggressively entering an on-court altercation and fighting, with the length of the suspension in part based on his history of repeated unsportsmanlike acts.
Charlotte Hornets forwards Miles Bridges and Moussa Diabaté were each suspended four games for fighting and escalating the altercation while Detroit center Jalen Duren was banned two games for initiating the altercation and fighting.
All four players were issued technical fouls and ejected from the contest with 7:09 remaining in the third quarter of Detroit's 110-104 victory over the Hornets on Monday at Charlotte.
The melee erupted when Diabaté committed a defensive foul on Duren.
Stewart and Duren begin serving their suspensions later on Wednesday when the Pistons visit Toronto. Bridges and Diabaté start serving their suspensions when Charlotte host Atlanta.
