Cade Cunningham Makes History
Cade Cunningham is starting to become a household name in NBA circles. The rookie has scored at least 25 points, grabbed at least five rebounds and dished out at least five assists five times this season. That's more than any other rookie in the league and the third most by a rookie all time, just a game behind Trae Young and 11 behind the leader, Luka Doncic.
Tonight, Cunningham was especially good. With his 34 points, eight rebounds, eight assists and four blocks, he joined Michael Jordan as the only rookie in NBA history to stuff the stat sheet in such a way. Anytime you're on a graphic with His Airness, you're doing something right.
Cunningham is likely pacing the pack for Rookie of the Year honors, with Orlando's Franz Wagner in the mix as well. The two will square off in Orlando on Friday evening.
