Detroit Pistons' Cade Cunningham, Jalen Duren Make All-NBA Teams
Cade Cunningham earns All-NBA First Team honors leading Detroit to 60 wins, while Jalen Duren's Third Team selection makes him eligible for a $287 million extension.
- On Sunday, the NBA named Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham to the All-NBA First Team and center Jalen Duren to the Third Team, marking the first Pistons duo on All-NBA teams since 2005-06.
- Cunningham and Duren fueled the Pistons to a 60-22 regular season record, the franchise's third-best finish, with Cunningham averaging 23.9 points and 9.9 assists while Duren shot 65% from the field.
- Duren's All-NBA selection makes him eligible for a five-year rookie-max extension worth roughly $287 million, a nearly $50 million increase from his previous contract value without the honor.
- Pistons president of basketball operations Trajan Langdon said Tuesday the team looks forward to "getting a deal done" with Duren's representative, two days after the season ended with a playoff loss.
- Ausar Thompson also becomes extension-eligible this offseason, requiring the Pistons to manage their salary cap carefully as both Thompson and Duren are considered non-spacers on offense who limit floor spacing.
