For the second time this season, the Detroit Pistons found themselves in an NBA Cup matchup. Just one night after their battle with the Milwaukee Bucks, they traveled to Boston to take on the defending champion Celtics.

With Jayson Tatum and Jrue Holiday, the Celtics lost two starters and didn’t have much firepower. Still, they managed to defeat the Pistons with a final score of 130-120. Although Detroit didn’t emerge victorious, they still had a memorable moment.

The biggest story for the Pistons in Wednesday’s matchup was the play of Cade Cunningham. With statistics of 27 points, nine rebounds and 14 assists, he fell just shy of a triple-double. The former No. 1 pick not only filled up the stat sheet, but also threw down a viral dunk.

After the Pistons came up with a steal, Cunningham quickly began punching past defenders in the open court. The Celtics’ last line of defense was Derrick White, who found himself on the wrong end of a poster slam.

As the replay made the rounds on social media, a number of reactions erupted from fans:

Wednesday’s performance was just the latest appearance in a breakout year for the Pistons guard. He continues to be the focal point of the offense both as a goalscorer and as a moderator. 14 assists also mark a new season and career high for the young guard.

Even though it was a loss, Cunningham’s performance against the Celtics (albeit shorthanded) is a testament to his rise to stardom in the NBA. His continued growth is extremely important to the franchise as he is their mainstay going forward.

After their match against the Celtics, the Pistons have to take a longer break. They won’t be back in action until Saturday, when they’re scheduled to face the New York Knicks.
