In 50 games, Beef Stew, in 28 minutes per game, averaged 11 points per game on 44% shooting from the field and 32.7% from the three-point line while notching 8.7 rebounds per game.
The extension of Stewart adds another big man to an already crowded frontcourt as the Pistons have to find playing time for Jalen Duren, Marvin Bagley, III, and James Wiseman for the 2023-24 season.
