Cade Cunningham leads Pistons' balanced bounce-back win to sting Hornets
Cade Cunningham scored his season-high, Ausar Thompson had a near-triple double and Detroit Pistons found their offense in 2nd half to sting Hornets.
The Detroit Pistons secured a 97-89 victory against the Charlotte Hornets at Little Caesars Arena, marking their fourth win of the season and marking a strong rebound from their first loss in the early week. Cade Cunningham played a pivotal role, scoring a season-high 30 points and contributing seven assists, leading the team's resurgence.
The Pistons' other starters, including Paul Reed, Daniss Jenkins, Duncan Robinson, and Ausar Thompson, also made significant contributions, with Jenkins scoring 14 points and adding three assists. The Hornets, lacking their starting backcourt of Coby White and Kon Knueppel, managed just 31 points and 12 rebounds. Despite a slow start, the Pistons turned the game around, outscoring the Hornets 53-38 in the second half and ultimately securing the win with Cunningham's clutch 3-pointers late in the game.
