Without LeBron James, the Lakers will line up in the next game (with the Knicks away), as a one-match ban was imposed on the “king” for his behavior in the match against the Pistons.
As announced by the NBA, the 36-year-old forward was punished for recklessly and unsportsmanlike beating Aizeia Stewart.
On the other, the Detroit center was punished with a two-match ban for his violent behavior immediately after receiving the blow.
So, Stewart will be absent from the Pistons’ confrontation with the Heat and the Bucks.
We remind you that during the 3rd ten minutes of the meeting between the two teams, the 20-year-old Detroit player became furious with LeBron and chased him immediately after the elbow he received in the face, which resulted in him being damned.
Detroit Pistons center Isaiah Stewart will be suspended two games for his role in the roughhousing with LeBron James on Sunday. James was suspended one game.

No Madison Square Garden for LeBron James on Tuesday night. James gets a one-game suspension for “recklessly hitting” Detroit’s Isaiah Stewart “in the face.” Stewart was suspended two games for “escalating” Sunday’s “on-court altercation.”
