Detroit Pistons star combo guard Cade Cunningham is having himself quite the season and while most basketball players of his caliber tend to protest their bodies at all costs to avoid injuries, Cunningham seems willing to put his on the line to live a life-long dream.
In a recent interview with Landon Buford, Cade Cunningham is one of the many wrestling fans that play in the NBA, but Cade doesn’t want to just watch his favorite wrestlers duke it out in the squared ring, he also wants to partake in laying the smacketh down on someone. After seeing the likes of Dennis Rodman, Shaquille O’Neal and even Jalen Brunson pop up and get involved in some scuffles in the ring, Cade is hoping to follow suit at some point in the future as he’s been a fan of the sport for quite some time.
When asked about his love of wrestling and if he would like to one day partake in some ring action, Cade didn’t hesitate to respond. “Yeah it’s possible. For sure. I think WWE is fire. I grew up loving WWE… but yeah. I’d be down to do it for sure,” he said.
While we’re sure Cade would love to get his hands on an opponent at some live WWE event, we’re not sure management over at the Detroit Pistons front office would co-sign seeing their start guard put himself in harms way as we’ve seen many professional wrestlers suffer all kinds of injuries over the decades. Heck, when Jalen Brunson appeared to hurt himself during his quick WWE appearance last year, Knicks nation collectively held their breath as we couldn’t bare the thought of losing our superstar point guard in such a way.
What do y’all think about Cade Cunningham wanting to take part in a WWE event? Should he risk it for fun or play it safe and just watch from the sidelines? Let us know in the comments section below.

Kevin Durant and Angel Reese are now back in the headlines. He has sparked dating rumors after he gave her a shoutout during a pregame Q&A.
As per TMZ the NBA is honoring women all month in honor of Women’s History Month. The Phoenix Suns specifically asked each of their players who their favorite female athlete of all time as they walked into the stadium. As expected Serena Williams was one of the most popular responses but when Kevin Durant was asked he simply responded “Angel Reese.”
His choice for female GOAT athlete is rather interesting as the two have been romantically linked in the past. Last summer they were seated together at a Team USA women’s basketball exhibition game which led to speculation that they most likely romantically involved. Angel Reese soon put a stop to the hearsay on her Unapologetically Angel podcast and formally denied that she was dating Kevin Durant.
Nevertheless Kevin’s answer has already went viral prompting folks online to speculate on the real reason for KD shouting out Angel. “KD knew what he was doing,” one user wrote on Instagram. Another fan added “We know what KD on.” Another individual joked “KD shootin his shot and Angel gonna grab that board and put it back up… Then grab that board and put it back up… then grab that board and kick it out.”

As part of the collaboration, New York Times best-selling author Hanif Abdurraqib compares why A Tribe Called Quest and basketball go hand-in-hand.
“I came to the music of A Tribe Called Quest as a young guy, a short guy who played basketball — streetball — on the East Side of Columbus, Ohio,” says Abdurraqib. “What I loved about A Tribe Called Quest is the same thing I loved about what pushed me to thrive on the basketball court. You have to be inventive. You have to be innovative. You have to see a hundred different things inside of one thing. For me, there’s not just one move. There’s a movement that opens up several other movements.”
