In the NBA regular season, Corningham, the winner of this draft, finally ushered in his own opportunity to play. This magic match against the Pistons was the debut of his career. However, Cunningham's performance was very surprising. Because he played 19 minutes in the whole game, but only scored 2 points.
To be honest, there is a big deviation between such data and the identity of Yuanlang. After the game, Cunningham also gave an interview to the media. In response, he felt that he himself was feeling good on the pitch. Although everything was ready before the start, the feeling of excitement in my heart was unstoppable.
On his dismal shooting percentage of 1 of 8 in the game, he said, even though those goals didn't score, I was very confident in my level because they felt great about the shots. I have to say that the 1 in 8 hit rate can also be said to be very confident in yourself, which is really worthy of being a champion. It is worth mentioning that Corningham's ankle has always been injured. He said there was nothing unusual about the ankle and it didn't affect the game, but some more and better checks might be needed.
Reporters also asked about other rookie players, Corningham believes that in this year's draft, there are a lot of talented players, they are very strong. But he doesn't care, he just respects the other players and keeps himself in shape because that's what the team needs.
However, although the score was not high, Cunningham also completed some records. He became the first Pistons player to pick up six rebounds in a single quarter of his debut since 1998. His debut was unsatisfactory, exposing a number of problems, such as his mid-range shooting with great inaccuracies. However, he is still young and has been for a long time.
