For Cade Cunningham, the Detroit Pistons' resurgence is just beginning

Every NBA star has a moment, a declaration on the biggest stage. Often, that stage happens to be in one of the most iconic arenas in the league, Madison Square Garden.

Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham didn't realize his moment was coming, but when an errant pass by New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson drifted his way, the only thing standing between him and that moment was swingman Mikal Bridges bearing down for a steal. Three seconds and one behind-the-back dribble later, Cunningham found himself at the rim for two of his 33 points in Detroit's Game 2 victory in last season's playoffs, the Pistons' first postseason win since 2008.
