The Detroit Pistons have officially ruled out starting forward Isaiah Stewart for their upcoming game against the Utah Jazz, which is set to take place on Monday, November 6, 2023. Stewart, who is currently dealing with a back injury, was listed on the injury report earlier in the day, but further evaluations have led the team to make the decision to keep him sidelined for this important matchup. Detroit Pistons head coach Monty Williams confirmed, “Isaiah has been a key player for us, and while we’re eager to have him back on the court, it’s crucial that he takes the time he needs to fully recover.” This absence is expected to impact the Pistons’ performance, as Stewart has been averaging 13.2 points, 8.3 rebounds, and 2.0 assists through six games this season. Furthermore, the Pistons already faced heightened challenges this season with their record standing at 2-4 before this game. In Stewart’s absence, players like James Wiseman and Jalen Duren may see increased minutes and responsibilities on the court. The Pistons will need to rally together as they gear up against a competitive Utah Jazz team that is aiming to build momentum in their early season performance.
