Cade Cunningham, the Detroit Pistons guard, is generating buzz as a potential NBA All-Star this season. Analysts and former NBA players, including Jeff Teague, have praised his skills, likening his playing style to that of Dallas Mavericks star Luka Doncic.
At just 25 years old, Doncic has established himself as a superstar with five All-Star appearances. Cunningham, currently in his third NBA season, is averaging 25 points, nine assists, and seven rebounds, which has positioned him as a strong candidate for the All-Star game.
Despite a challenging start to his career impacted by injuries and team struggles, Cunningham's current performance and the Pistons' improved record have brought him into the All-Star conversation. He sits seventh among Eastern Conference backcourt players and is looking for further support from peers and media to secure his place in the big game.
