Detroit — The news isn’t getting any better about Pistons rookie Cade Cunningham’s ailing ankle.
Cunningham, who has been limited for most of training camp because of a twisted ankle he sustained this week, likely won’t play in Wednesday’s preseason opener at Little Caesars Arena against the San Antonio Spurs.
Coach Dwane Casey said Cunningham’s condition hasn’t improved and his probability for playing doesn’t look good.
“It's about the same. He still has some fluid on his ankle and we're going to be cautious,” Casey said. “It's disappointing, just because of the fact that this time was really to integrate him and get him going, and he's missed a lot of time.
