Stewart amassed eight points (3-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-3 FT), three rebounds, one assist and eight blocks across 17 minutes during Monday's 94-88 loss to the Magic in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

Stewart was a bright spot for the Pistons with a career-high eight swats in very limited action. With Detroit facing a 3-1 series deficit, Stewart made a strong case to be more involved going forward.

Banchero closed with 18 points (4-18 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 10-13 FT), eight rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal over 40 minutes during Monday's 94-88 win over the Pistons in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

Banchero had a brutal night shooting the ball, but he piled on the aggression with 13 free-throw attempts. With Franz Wagner's (calf) status in the air going forward, the Magic will likely need to continue to rely heavily on Banchero.

Cain supplied eight points (4-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt) and nine rebounds in 24 minutes during Monday's 94-88 win over Detroit in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

Cain had a strong showing off the bench and was all over the highlight reels for his monster slam over Jalen Duren. If Franz Wagner (calf) is forced to miss time, Cain looks like someone the Magic will lean on along with possibly Tristan da Silva.

LeVert registered two points (1-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt), five rebounds, three assists and two blocks across 25 minutes during Monday's 94-88 loss to the Magic in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

LeVert saw the largest workload among the reserves for Detroit, but he wasn't able to find much success. He has struggled overall in this series, shooting 25.0 percent from beyond the arc with 2.8 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 11.8 minutes per contest.

Cunningham produced 25 points (7-23 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 8-10 FT), nine rebounds, six assists and two blocks in 39 minutes during Monday's 94-88 loss to the Magic in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

The No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference is now staring at a 3-1 series deficit. Cunningham's counting stats have been terrific with 29.5 points, 7.5 assists and 6.3 rebounds, but he's also averaging 6.8 turnovers while shooting 42.4 percent from the field and 28.6 percent from beyond the arc.

Booker registered 24 points (8-16 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 7-9 FT), six assists and one block in 41 minutes during Monday's 131-122 loss to Oklahoma City in Game 4 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

Booker was unable to pull a game back for the Suns as the season came to an end Monday night. Playing in his 11th NBA campaign, Booker compiled regular-season averages of 26.1 points, 3.9 rebounds, 6.0 assists, 0.8 steals and 1.9 three-pointers in 33.5 minutes per contest.

Green racked up 23 points (10-25 FG, 1-10 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds, four assists and four steals in 39 minutes during Monday's 131-122 loss to the Thunder in Game 4 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

Green didn't have the best night shooting the ball, but he still put together an impressive stat line. Injuries derailed his first season in Phoenix, limiting him to 32 regular-season appearances. He posted averages of 17.8 points, 3.6 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.1 steals and 2.2 three-pointers in 25.9 minutes per contest prior to the playoffs.

Ighodaro ended with eight points (4-5 FG), eight rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals in 34 minutes during Monday's 131-122 loss to the Thunder in Game 4 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

With Mark Williams (foot) out for the postseason, Ighodaro stepped into a larger role for the Suns to close out the campaign. During the regular season, the second-year center appeared in all 82 games and was a staple in the rotation with averages of 6.5 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.7 blocks in 22.0 minutes per contest.

Hartenstein finished Monday's 131-122 victory over Phoenix in Game 4 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs with 18 points (5-7 FG, 8-9 FT), 12 rebounds, three assists and one steal over 29 minutes.

Hartenstein and Chet Holmgren combined for 42 points and 24 rebounds as they overpowered Phoenix's frontcourt. Across four games this series, Hartenstein posted averages of 11.0 points, 8.3 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.0 blocks in 23.5 minutes per contest.

Gilgeous-Alexander had 31 points (10-17 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 9-11 FT), two rebounds, eight assists and one block in 38 minutes during Monday's 131-122 win over the Suns in Game 4 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

The Thunder easily coasted by the Suns to sweep this series. Gilgeous-Alexander was terrific throughout the series, posting averages of 33.8 points, 8.0 assists, 3.8 rebounds and 0.8 blocks in 35.8 minutes per contest.
