END 3Q: Pistons 89, Bucks 89

J.B. Bickerstaff is deep into his bench on a night with no Duren, Ivey, Harris or LeVert. Cade Cunningham scored 26 in 18 first-half minutes and is finished.

HALF: Pistons 72, Bucks 60

Cade Cunningham in 18 minutes: 26 points, 8 of 14, 8 of 8 FTs, 6 boards, 6 assists, 2 steals.

I would suspect he is finished for the night.
