Beijing time on January 11! Today's NBA regular season Pistons home game against the Jazz is over. The pistons defeated the Jazz 126-116. In this game, Pistons player Cade Cunningham performed well and became the key to the team's victory.
Throughout the game, Cade Cunningham played 38 minutes, shooting 10-of-17, including 5-of-9 from three-point range and 4-of-4 from the free throw line, with 29 points, 1 rebound, 8 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks. Excluding this game, Cade Cunningham averaged 31.8 minutes per game in the regular season, with 15.2 points, 5.9 rebounds, 5.3 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.6 blocks.
In the third quarter, Pistons player Cade Cunningham played 11 minutes and scored 18 points, 3 assists and 0 turnovers on 6-of-7 shooting. In the final moments of the fourth quarter, Jazz player Conley's attempt to layup was rejected by Cunningham's nailed board cap.
In this game, Cunningham finally played a good game, in the previous two games, Cunningham faced the Magic, scoring 12 points on 3-of-14 shooting; against the Grizzlies, he only scored 12 points on 5-of-19. As a draft pick, the team sees Cunningham as an important asset for future reconstruction, with a lot of playing time and shots, but so far he has a low shooting percentage, shooting 38.1% of the league's 121st; three-point shooting rate of 31% of the league's 143.
For Cunningham, he may still need time to adapt to the intensity of the NBA's game, constantly stabilize himself, and prove his worth as soon as possible.
