Cade Cunningham looked worn down at the end of last season after carrying the offense for most of it. It’s happening again this year, and there are already troubling signs that the Pistons need to ease his workload.
There was rumbling among the fans after Cade missed some late free throws recently, and not to make excuses for the guy, as I’m sure he’d say he should have made those, but they were taken after Herculean efforts to keep his team in the game.
Cunningham currently has a 33.3 usage rate percentage, which is the highest of his career.
