Grant Hill, the managing director of the USA men's national team, doesn't mind hearing his name attached to a rising star such as Cunningham, who he sees as a strong candidate for the FIBA World Cup and Olympics during the next cycle. "I think there's some similarities in terms of trying to just control the game and trying to have an impact on the game in a number of different ways," Hill told ESPN. "He thinks the game at a very high level, and he's got just this incredible feel and incredible basketball instincts, and I do feel like those were some of the similarities that we brought to the game." -via ESPN / April 2, 2025​

After enduring the worst record in franchise history last season, at 14-68, Cunningham carries those low moments with him as he leads a miraculous Pistons turnaround this year, quieting what might remain of any bust talk as a heavy favorite to win the NBA's Most Improved Player. "There was a time where I didn't give them much else to think," Cunningham told ESPN, when asked about the early bust talk. "But I felt support since day one being here, though, and more than anything I wanted to hold up my end of the bargain." -via ESPN / April 2, 2025​
