Fans of the Detroit Pistons have been waiting since last November for the return of Cade Cunningham, who missed most of last season after undergoing surgery on his shin.
So far we’ve had to settle for glimpses of him in scrimmages against Team USA, as Cunningham and Jalen Duren are part of the Select Team that is helping the US prepare for the FIBA World Cup that begins on August 25th.
It’s a great opportunity for Cunningham and Duren, who will get a few weeks of high-level practice and scrimmages against top players from the US, as well as input from a coaching staff led by Steve Kerr.
