Cade Cunningham
Detroit Pistons · G
Injury risk score: 82/100 (High).
Current status: not on today’s NBA injury report.
Why Cade Cunningham’s risk score is 82
- Injury History (+57): 33 recorded injury events, 10 in the past 18 months, 7 severe
- Non-Injury Absences (context only): Missed games for illness/personal reasons in the past 18 months: ~1 (not counted toward risk score)
- Recurring Injury (+20): Knee has been the site of 9 separate injury episodes — a recurring, chronic-pattern concern rather than isolated bad luck
- Return to Play (-1): 8 healthy games since returning from his injury — each 5 lowers the score a little (up to 8 points) during the first year back
- Contract Year (×0.95): Not yet in a contract year (star-tier contract) — already secure enough that preservation instinct dominates
The injury risk score (0–100) is built from a player’s injury history — how often, how recently and how seriously he has been hurt — plus a body part that keeps failing, age, a recent return from injury, and his contract situation. 70+ is High risk, 40–69 Medium, under 40 Low.
