Cade Cunningham: “We’ll Come Back Stronger”

Cade Cunningham: “We’ll Come Back Stronger”

After a 44-win turnaround, Cade Cunningham and the Pistons leave the playoffs confident: “The league knows Detroit doesn’t back down.”

Cade Cunningham ended his first playoff run with a near triple-double in Game 6 (23 points, 8 assists, 7 rebounds), but the Detroit Pistons fell just short against the New York Knicks. Despite the heartbreak, the team completed one of the greatest single-season turnarounds in NBA history after last year’s 14-win campaign. “It hurts,” said Cunningham. “But we’ve proven we belong. We’ll be back and better.”

Coach J.B. Bickerstaff praised the team’s resilience, while owner Tom Gores spoke about how the group reignited the spirit of Detroit. Jalen Brunson’s late dagger sealed the series, but the Pistons showed fight every step of the way. One thing is certain: Detroit’s time is coming.
