Drew Eubanks and Isaiah Stewart’s tussle before the Phoenix Suns and Detroit Pistons’ February 14 matchup did more damage than initially revealed.

The two centers got into a heated verbal altercation and exchanged punches in the tunnel prior to tip-off.

While Eubanks was able to play 18 minutes that night, new information suggests that Stewart’s attack may have inflicted a serious injury on the 27-year-old rim protector.

Isaiah Stewart scrap left Drew Eubanks with “loose teeth”

TMZ Sports obtained an incident report from the Phoenix Police Department, which outlined the details of the intense fight.

The six-year NBA veteran told police what Stewart said as he approached him and ignited the brawl.

“He got off the bus and he started, um, just talking s***,” Eubanks began. “He said something along the lines of, ‘You wanna run it back? We’re right here. We can do it right now.'”

They noted Eubanks’ comments on how he felt in the aftermath of the brawl. “My teeth definitely are like looser and they hurt,” Eubanks stated.

The 6-foot-10 big man tried to walk away from Stewart before the fight, and three days after when he no longer wanted to press charges.
