Detroit Pistons: Isaiah Stewart’s big night
The Pistons were led by rookie Isaiah Stewart, who had his best night as a professional, notching 15 points while grabbing 21 rebounds and adding two blocked shots, one of which was a clutch, late game swat that essentially sealed it for the Pistons.

Stewart was everywhere last night, showing his ability to defend all over the floor and making his case for first-team All Rookie.
With 16 rebounds through three quarters tonight vs. OKC, Isaiah Stewart has recorded the most rebounds in a game by any rookie in the NBA this season. Stewart has secured his fifth double-double, marking the second-most double-doubles by any NBA rookie in 2020-21 (L. Ball-7).

The Detroit Pistons have to be exited about the future, as they have three promising rookies, an improving Doumbouya, Josh Jackson who is still under-25, Hamidou Diallo who is on the rise and Frank Jackson who is having a career year and is just 22-years-old.
After a long wait, the future is finally bright in Detroit and the Pistons showed it off last night against the Thunder.
