NBA-Pistons select Oklahoma State's Cunningham with No. 1 pick in draft

The Pistons selected Oklahoma State's Cade Cunningham with the top pick of the 2021 NBA draft on Thursday, giving Detroit an NBA-ready, 6-foot-8 point guard.

Cunningham, 19, was named the Big 12 Player of the Year after his one season with the Cowboys and joins a Pistons squad that picked three players in the first round of last year's draft and finished last season 20-52.
