The Detroit Pistons have risen from the ashes this season.
Cade Cunningham has been a huge reason for that.
The fourth-year guard has flashed his star potential throughout his career, but has taken his game to another level this season. No longer is Cade flashing that potential, he’s realizing it and has blossomed into the star that Detroit desperately needed.
And now he’ll be recognized with his first NBA All-Star nod.
Cunningham was chosen by the NBA’s coaches as a reserve on the Eastern Conference team, marking the first appearance by a Pistons player in the All-Star Game since 2018-19 when Blake Griffin made it in his last stand.
