Isaiah Stewart Reportedly Traded to Grizzlies, Full Pistons Return & Updated Salary Cap Revealed

The Detroit Pistons have traded forward/center Isaiah Stewart to the Memphis Grizzlies, per ESPN's Shams Charania.

In return, the Pistons received three future second-round picks, according to Charania. Detroit also gained some valuable salary cap relief with the deal:

Stewart averaged 10.0 points on 55.0 percent shooting, 5.0 rebounds and 1.6 blocks in 22.7 minutes per game in 2025-26. He started 13 of 58 games for a 60-win Pistons team that finished first in the Eastern Conference standings and reached the second round of the playoffs.

However, Stewart didn't play much during the Pistons' 14-game postseason run, seeing the court for just 11.8 minutes per matchup. He averaged 4.0 points and 2.4 rebounds per game.

The 25-year-old Stewart went 16th overall out of Washington to the Portland Trail Blazers in the 2020 NBA draft.

He landed in Detroit after a pair of trades prior to the 2020-21 season. Stewart played well enough for the Pistons to sign him to a four-year, $64 million extension before the 2023-24 campaign.

The 6'8", 250-pound big man provides the size and muscle that teams may covet down low.

The Grizzlies are hoping to get back on track after a few down years, and landing a physical forward like Stewart should help with their rebuild.
