'There’s Not Really One Way to Stop Him' – Detroit Pistons’ Cade Cunningham Draws ‘Unstoppable’ Comment From Teammate

While talking to his twin brother, Amen, who plays for the Houston Rockets , Thompson detailed what most people “don’t understand” about the Detroit Pistons star.

“I think he’s like 6’8”, 6’7”, 6’8” —I don’t know. He is so strong. That’s what people don’t understand. I’ll never forget — we played ones with him before last year,” Thompson said about Cunningham’s most overlooked trait.

“He posted me up from the three-point line all the way under the basket. I fouled him. Then he went and did the same thing. It’s like — if you stop him getting to the basket, and if you stop him with his face forward — he could just get to something else. He has so many things he could do. You really have to study him and learn every way to stop him,” he added.
