Out at least one more week
The update isn't especially surprising, given that Pistons head coach J.B. Bickerstaff said Sunday that Stewart was without a clear timeline for a return. Bickerstaff also said Stewart has been playing through the injury recently, but it worsened, so the Pistons opted to shut him down. Until Stewart is cleared to play, Paul Reed should remain in the rotation as the backup to starting center Jalen Duren, while forwards Javonte Green and Ronald Holland could see slightly elevated roles.

Erupts for 30 points
Lanier combined with teammate Isaac Jones for 67 points on the way to an impressive victory. This marks the first time in 16 regular-season appearances that Lanier has reached the 30-point threshold, and he also set a season high in rebounds.

Excluded from rotation Sunday
With the return of Ausar Thompson (ankle) bringing the Pistons back to full strength at guard and on the wing, Jenkins ended up being the odd man out of head coach J.B. Bickerstaff's 11-man rotation. Bickerstaff went with Caris LeVert, Marcus Sasser and Kevin Huerter on the second unit over Jenkins, who had appeared in each of Detroit's last 16 contests but shot just 35.5 percent from the field and had a 2.4:1.4 assist-to-turnover ratio during that time.
