The “Detroit vs. Everybody” moniker was popularized in 2012 by an apparel brand in the city. The way the Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham looks at it now, it’s him and Detroit versus Everybody. In his first three seasons, Cunningham was on a Pistons team that endured 192 losses, including an NBA record-tying 28-game losing streak. He played with a rotating group of teammates instructed by three different head coaches. Never once, however, did the No. 1 pick in the 2021 NBA draft ask out. And now, with his All-Star caliber play, perseverance and leadership, Cunningham is finally enjoying success with the Pistons and truly appreciating every positive step. “There is a different satisfaction knowing that you worked for something,” Cunningham recently told Andscape. “So, I wouldn’t want to do it with a different city than Detroit. I think they deserve to have a winning team. I want to be a part of that.”
