Pelicans' Dante Cunningham: Modest production in Saturday start

Cunningham collected six points (3-6 FG) and five rebounds over 27 minutes in Saturday's 123-101 loss to the Warriors.

Analysis:

Cunningham notched a second straight start at power forward in place of DeMarcus Cousins (Achilles) and has now averaged 5.0 points and 4.5 rebounds in those games. The eight-year veteran's upside remains capped even when getting extra run with the first unit, with a pair of 15-point efforts serving as his scoring high for the season.
