Cunningham chipped in 13 points (5-16 FG, 0-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, five assists and two steals in 37 minutes during Sunday's 125-94 loss to Cleveland in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.
This was a disappointing end to Cunningham's playoff run, but he has plenty to hold his head high for. He led the Pistons to the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference and finished fifth in the MVP race. Across 64 regular-season contests, he averaged 23.9 points, 9.9 assists, 5.5 rebounds, 0.8 blocks and 1.4 steals on 46.1 percent shooting from the field.

Rotowire
Cunningham finished with 21 points (7-19 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, eight assists and one block in Friday's 115-94 win over Cleveland in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.
Cunningham was coming off a 39-point performance heading into this contest. While the 24-year-old wasn't as productive on the scoring end, he still did enough to lead the Pistons to a much-needed victory. Cunningham has shot the ball well from deep of late, going 11-for-20 from three-point range in the last two games. However, turnovers continue to be an issue, with Cunningham totaling 35 so far in the series. Both clubs will meet in Game 7 on Sunday for the right to play the Knicks in the Eastern Conference Finals.

However, the Pistons came up short at home and now head back to Cleveland for a must-win Game 6 on Friday.
