Pistons guard Cade Cunningham returned from injury Wednesday night, delivering a strong double-double in a 137-111 rout of the Milwaukee Bucks. The 22-year-old, sidelined since March 19 after a collapsed lung, finished with 13 points and 10 assists in just 26 minutes. His comeback was crucial as the Pistons (57-22) clinched the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference, securing their first Central Division title in 18 years. 'I felt really good out there,' Cunningham said, crediting the medical staff for his recovery.

The team went 8-3 during his absence, proving they could compete without their star. Coach J. B.

Bickerstaff emphasized the squad's resilience, stating players 'decided they were going to be the best version of themselves' to fill the void left by Cunningham's absence.
