Cade Cunningham name-drops Blake Griffin and AI.
Cade Cunningham was officially named an Eastern Conference All-Star reserve on Thursday. Not only is he the first player to represent the Pistons in the All-Star event, but he’s the first guard to do it since the Hall of Famer Allen Iverson.“It’s crazy. Blake Griffin and . I mean, it doesn’t get much better than that.”
“It’s a blessing to be part of a franchise like this. Like I’ve been saying, I want my own chapter in this history & this is the beginning.”Griffin’s nod came during a season where he averaged 25 points, eight rebounds, and five assists in 75 games. Unfortunately, his progress was derailed in the playoffs after he suffered an injury and could only appear on the court for two outings.
The difference between Cunningham and the Pistons’ latest two All-Stars is the fact that he’s a homegrown talent. The team selected him No. 1 overall during the 2021 NBA Draft. While his first few seasons in the NBA didn’t go as planned, Cunningham seems to be on the right track at this stage in his career.
