Stewart will be suspended for seven games for his involvement in an altercation with Charlotte's Miles Bridges and Moussa Diabate on Monday, ESPN's Shams Charania reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Pistons were anticipating a lengthy suspension and got one for their backup center after he left the bench to aggressively charge Bridges and Diabate. Jalen Duren will be suspended for a pair of games, making Paul Reed a decent pickup in fantasy hoops for the short term. Stewart will be eligible to return against the Cavaliers on March 3.

Stewart was ejected during the third quarter of Monday's game against Charlotte for his involvement in an altercation, Sam Perley of the Hornets' official site reports. He recorded two points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt) in 11 minutes before exiting.

EDGE Analysis

Stewart appeared to get into it with Miles Bridges, and there could be additional discipline handed down after league officials review the footage further. Stewart and Jalen Duren were ejected with 7:09 remaining in the third, leaving Detroit dangerously thin in the frontcourt.

Stewart is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against Charlotte.

EDGE Analysis

Stewart started in the frontcourt over the previous two games but will return to a bench role Monday with Jalen Duren (knee) cleared to play. Overall, Stewart has come off the bench in 34 of his 47 appearances this season, averaging 9.3 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.6 blocks and 1.2 assists in 22.2 minutes per contest as a reserve.

Stewart is starting Thursday's game against the Wizards.

EDGE Analysis

Stewart will step into the starting five with Tobias Harris (hip) out of commission. Stewart impressed in his last start Jan. 7 against Chicago, ending the night with 31 points, three rebounds, one assist, one steal and two blocks in 30 minutes.

Stewart totaled 11 points (3-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal in 23 minutes during Tuesday's 124-121 win over the Nuggets.

EDGE Analysis

Stewart chipped in across most major categories, turning in another serviceable performance. After a hot start to the season, Stewart has settled into a 22-minute per-night role, averaging 10.6 points, 4.6 rebounds and 1.4 blocks in 14 games over the past month. As long as Jalen Duren is healthy, Stewart should only be looked at as a specialist streamer for blocks.

Stewart closed with 16 points (7-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and two assists in 25 minutes during Friday's 111-104 loss to the Rockets.

EDGE Analysis

Stewart dropped 16 points, the most he has scored in his past five appearances. Despite playing a consistent role off the bench, Stewart has been inconsistent, particularly on the offensive end of the floor. With season averages of 10.2 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.9 blocks, he should be viewed as more of a stream-level player, as opposed to someone who needs to be rostered.

Stewart chipped in four points (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds and two blocks across 22 minutes during Thursday's 108-105 victory over Phoenix.

EDGE Analysis

Stewart wasn't all that involved in the offense in his return from a one-game absence, but he still came through with the defensive stats. Stewart ranks second in total blocks (72) this season, so he's worth rostering in most fantasy leagues as a shot-blocking specialist.

Stewart (illness) is available for Thursday's game against the Suns.

EDGE Analysis

As expected, the Pistons have upgraded Stewart from probable to available despite an illness. With Tobias Harris (hip) also cleared to play, Stewart is set to ride with the second unit. Stewart has averaged 9.2 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.9 blocks in 22.0 minutes per contest across 23 appearances as a reserve this year.

Stewart (illness) is probable for Thursday's game against the Suns.

EDGE Analysis

Stewart is likely to return from a one-game absence due to an illness. With Tobias Harris (hip) probable for Thursday, Stewart is likely to come off the bench. Stewart has averaged 9.2 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.9 blocks in 22.0 minutes per tilt through 23 games off the bench this season.

Stewart (illness) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Clippers.

EDGE Analysis

Stewart was a late addition to the injury report due to an illness and will miss his first game since Nov. 12. With the 24-year-old big man joining Jalen Duren (ankle) and Tobias Harris (hip) on the sidelines, plenty of minutes will be available for Paul Reed, Ronald Holland and Javonte Green, while Isaac Jones and Tolu Smith are candidates to enter the rotation. Stewart's next opportunity to play will come Thursday against the Suns.
