"Detroit center Isaiah Stewart was suspended seven games for leaving the bench area, agressively entering an on-court altercation and fighting. This is Stewart's fifth suspension in his six-year NBA career. One resulted from an altercation with the Lakers' LeBron James in 2021 and another from an altercation that spilled into the stands during a game against the Minnesota Timberwolves last year."
"The incident took place midway through the third quarter after Duren was fouled by Diabaté while driving toward the basket. Duren approached Diabaté and the two men appeared to bump into each other. Duren then appeared to hit Diabaté in the face with an open hand to ignite a brawl that lasted more than 30 seconds. Bridges and Duren exchanged punches at one point, and Stewart left the bench and fought with Bridges."
