Stop asking me if #Pistons Cade Cunningham is going to play.
If I knew, you’d see a tweet that started with BREAKING NEWS:
Until then, chill. – 10:04 AM

Let’s be clear about something: I’ve asked several times about #Pistons Cade Cunningham’s ankle injury. We’re not sitting in the press conference NOT asking about it.
It’s. Day. To. Day. Dwane Casey doesn’t run around looking at MRIs and we’re not going to see it. – 10:00 AM
