Video Shows Stewart Punching Eubanks in 2024 Altercation
A video circulating publicly in September 2026 appears to show Isaiah Stewart punching Drew Eubanks during a February 2024 confrontation in Phoenix, then pushing him as Eubanks moves away. Other people intervene as the encounter is brought under control. The footage has renewed attention on an incident that led to Stewart’s arrest and a three-game NBA suspension; the misdemeanor assault charge was later dismissed. The video shows Stewart and Eubanks exchanging words before Stewart throws a right-handed punch that appears to connect. Eubanks initially moves away, and Stewart appears to push him from behind. Eubanks then turns back toward Stewart, and people nearby step in. The clip offers a visual record of the confrontation, but reports do not identify who released it or explain why it surfaced in September 2026. The incident took place in a parking or tunnel area at Phoenix’s Footprint Center in February 2024, before the Detroit Pistons and Phoenix Suns played that night. Stewart was then with Detroit, while Eubanks was with Phoenix. The footage is consistent with the NBA’s description of Stewart as having initiated a physical altercation and punched and pushed Eubanks.
