Drew Eubanks suffered bleeding gums and loose teeth after the altercation with Isaiah Stewart
Drew Eubanks and Isiah Stewart were involved in a fight before their teams faced each other. The incident happened outside the court but in the arena. It was reported that Isaiah and Drew got into an argument and things started to heat up between them. Suddenly Stewart dropped his bags and landed a punch and this is when the people present there stepped in to separate the two players.
In a recent report by TMZ, it was revealed that Eubanks filed a police complaint against the Pistons player approximately five hours after they got into the fight. According to the report, Eubanks claimed that he tried to walk away but Isaiah kept on advancing and ultimately threw a sucker punch. The Sun’s player stated that the punch landed at the center of his mouth and left him with bleeding gums and loose teeth. “My teeth are like looser and they hurt,” he told the police, according to TMZ.
How long will Isaiah be out because of his altercation with Drew?
The verdict for the violent action of Isiah Thomas has already been delivered. The Pistons player has been suspended for three games because of his altercation with the Suns player. On the other hand, Drew Eubanks is playing for the Suns and has not received any punishment. It is fair, as the Sun player did not resort to violence even after getting punched in the face.
