For a long time, there haven't been good sports news in LaMotown, but that may be changing this season. The Detroit Pistons are aiming to take steps forward in their rebuilding process, and having a player like Cade Cunningham is a reason for hope, especially considering the level of play he is demonstrating at the beginning of this season.

Nothing has been expected from a franchise that has not done anything significant for too long. Over time, the Detroit Pistons have accumulated young talent as forcefully as they have faced sports disappointments. However, this year everything could change. To achieve this, they need a great version of Cade Cunningham, who seems freed from the physical problems that have greatly hindered his early years in the NBA. Surrounded by willing players eager to prove their worth, the foundational talent is emerging as much more than a scorer.

Proof of this is that he is already the fourth player in Pistons history with the most triple-doubles, after achieving the third of his career in the victory against the Lakers. He distributes the game, provides rhythm to the attack, shoots with tactical sense, and feeds players like Duren or Ivey. The excitement has returned to the Detroit Pistons upon seeing what a player who, at 23 years old, still has room to evolve is capable of. The complementarity with Ivey remains to be seen, but if the Michigan team ever considered parting ways with one of them, Cade Cunningham is making that decision very difficult.
