Pistons will lock in Cade Cunningham for five years

No surprise to DetroitOr The Athletic reveals the outlines of the future contract Cade Cunninghameven if ESPN wants to be more cautious by declaring that there is “nothing imminent” for an agreement.

So, the first choice of the 2021 Draft should receive $226 million over five yearsfrom the summer of 2025. This is the maximum that could be offered to him at the end of his rookie contract.

An expected choice on the part of the Pistonssince the leader must embody the future of the franchise alongside Jalen Duren, Ausar Thompson, Jaden Ivey and now Ron Holland, the last player drafted in Michigan.

Author of a 2023/24 season (his third in the league) with 22.7 points, 7.5 assists and 4.3 rebounds on average, Cade Cunningham must now help his team reach a milestone collectively, as it continues the exercises at the bottom of the rank. It will be under the orders of JB Bickerstaff that he will try to achieve this, because the former Cleveland coach has just been hired by Detroit to replace Monty Williams.
