Cunningham clutch late as Pistons close out Pacers, 97-89

Detroit — The final minutes of the game are slowly becoming Cade Cunningham’s time.

For a rookie, he’s showing a poise late in close games that is making all the hype surrounding his selection as the No. 1 pick even more palatable.

Cunningham took control of the offense and helped spur a late finish for the Pistons in a 97-89 win over the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday night at Little Caesars Arena.

The victory continued the streak of alternating wins and losses for the Pistons over the last six games, but it was a needed positive after a deflating 22-point loss to the Sacramento Kings on Monday.
