Source: Pistons’ Cade Cunningham to have season-ending surgery
DETROIT -- A league source confirmed to MLive on Monday that Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham is set to undergo season-ending surgery to repair a stress fracture in his left shin, limiting his second season to only 12 games.

At first, the expectation from the Pistons’ medical staff was that Cunningham would only miss several games, giving him the chance to rest and heal.
