Detroit Pistons: 3 player comparisons for Cade Cunningham

Detroit Pistons: Player comparison #2 for Cade Cunningham- Luka Doncic

The player most often compared to Cade Cunningham is current NBA superstar Luka Doncic.

Both are huge point guards who can make plays and score from all three levels, though Doncic is currently a bit stronger and better in the post.

I think Cunningham is a better defender already, so when he puts on some additional strength, he could be far better than Doncic on that end.

They are both great finishers around the rim but Cunningham is the superior long-range shooter.

They both play with an edge, which I like, and want the ball in the big moments, which is exactly what you want out of a superstar and the leader of your team.

I don’t think it is hyperbole to say that Cunningham, like Doncic, will be a triple-double machine in the NBA, a guy who leads his team in just about every offensive category.
