NEW YORK — Cade Cunningham has arrived.
The Detroit Pistons’ superstar, in Madison Square Garden with the nation watching and many famous actors, athletes and musicians in attendance, put on a show. The New York Knicks were hapless as he terrorized their crew of long-armed wings with an array of spins, stepbacks and drives right through their bodies.
The historic building, with the rowdiest fans in the league, was quieted and humbled by the end of the night.
It wasn’t just a win for the Pistons, but a historic moment.
