As the Detroit Pistons staged a scrappy fourth-quarter comeback against the Charlotte Hornets, rising star Cade Cunningham suffered an injury scare, suffering a hip-related setback.

After seeing the field for nearly nine minutes in the fourth quarter, Cunningham was ruled out for the remainder of the game. He was unable to see the game in overtime.

After the game, Pistons head coach JB Bickerstaff did not have a definitive update on Cunningham. However, the veteran guard told reporters that he feels good, which is a positive sign that he could be available in the future.

However, he will likely undergo further testing to determine this.

Despite missing some of the action Thursday, Cunningham led the Pistons in scoring. He lost 27 points. Even though Cunningham was shooting at a high volume, his efficiency wasn’t at its best.

The Star Guard made nine of their 26 shots from the field. Nine of his attempts came from beyond the arc. He only made two of his three-pointers.

Once again, Cunningham had great success in his game. He delivered ten assists. The veteran nearly notched another triple-double this season when he was just three rebounds short.

The Pistons struggled to come out of Charlotte with a win on Thursday. Despite trailing by 20 points and forced overtime, the Pistons were outscored by two points in the extra minutes.

The Pistons and Hornets missed their top stars as LaMelo Ball fouled out less than a second into overtime. With the loss, the Pistons move to 0-2 on the year against the Hornets, losing both matchups in exciting fashion.

At 7-10, the Pistons advance to Saturday’s game against the Orlando Magic. The status of Cunningham’s injury report for this game is unclear at this time.
