The Dallas Mavericks were staring down the barrel of a tricky frontcourt situation. Anthony Davis suffered a calf strain in Wednesday's game against the Indiana Pacers, and the team announced on Friday that he would be re-evaluated after they get back from their two-game stint away from home.
Looking like the All-NBA version of himself, Cunningham went off for 30 points, 10 assists and six rebounds on Wednesday.
While averaging 11.6 points, Holland has taken the helm as the unit's leading scorer. Still, the Pistons' bench production has been a collective effort, with Javonte Green and Isaiah Stewart displaying their two-way talents and leading the Pistons in 3-point field goal percentage at 41.7% and 58.3%, respectively.
The Pistons are the home team in Mexico City which means they're going to be putting on a show for their international fans.
