More on this storyline
The Pistons have been eager to promote Stewart as a Defensive Player of the Year candidate. Thompson didn’t hesitate when asked if Isaiah Stewart should at least receive an All-Defensive Team nod. “Yeah, 1,000%,” Thompson said. “I don’t see people scoring on him too often at the basket. Maybe because his name isn’t big enough, people don’t talk about him as much. They like to talk about when he gets into it, but people don’t know — he’s getting into it because he’s getting the other person frustrated. He’s scared of no one. I think he’s the best rim protector in the league.” -via Responsible Gaming / March 30, 2025
