Cade Cunningham has a new sidekick.
The Detroit Pistons added to their young core by drafting Purdue guard Jaden Ivey with the No. 5 pick in Thursday night's NBA Draft at Barclays Center in New York.
Ivey, 20, is a 6-foot-4, 200-pound guard with elite athleticism that can get to the rack. He averaged 17.3 points, 4.9 rebounds and 3.1 assists during his sophomore season at Purdue and was named both a consensus All-American and All-Big Ten.
