Cade Cunningham: I think I should be Rookie of the Year because of all the things I’ve been able to do for my team this year. I feel like I helped my team in a lot of different ways that may not have always turned out to be wins. If you watch my game, and watch the way that I play, you could appreciate all the things that I do on the floor. What makes me the Rookie of the Year is me being able to do so many things at such a high level.

#Pistons Troy Weaver on Cade Cunningham as a leader: “When you’re absent of something and it shows up, you like it … Cade is a voice, and it was a welcome voice, because we didn’t have a ‘rah, rah’ guy … Cade was authentic and they received him well because he was himself.” – 1:53 PM

Asked Weaver and Casey if Cade had to earn the respect of the locker room: “When you’re absent of something and it shows up … our leadership was different. Our veterans were quiet guys. Our younger guys were workmen like. Cade had a voice. It was a welcomed voice.” – 1:52 PM

Casey when asked if Cunningham is better as an on-ball or off-ball player: “Cade is a guy who’s a connector with the ball in his hands. If you notice in crunch time, he had the ball in his hands.” – 1:49 PM

Weaver said Cade’s ability to lead and connect is part of why they drafted him. “We needed a leader. For him to come in at 19 years old, have a voice and have his leadership qualities displayed this year, tremendous. He’s a connector because of his leadership.” – 1:48 PM
