Now the Pistons will try to bounce back at home on Wednesday as they face off against a struggling Bucks team.<\/p>\n

While Detroit is looking to pick up a key victory in Wednesday night’s matchup, they also received some positive injury news ahead of te game regarding star guard Cade Cunningham.<\/p>\n

Ahead of Wednesday\u2019s matchup against the Bucks, the Pistons announced that Cunningham has been listed as questionable.<\/p>\n

Of course, Cunningham has missed the last 11 games due to a collapsed lung and there is a chance he could return as soon as Wednesday night.<\/p>\n

Even if Cunningham is able to return against the Bucks, it is likely that the Pistons will limit his minutes as they try to keep him as healthy as possible ahead of the playoffs as they try to make a run at a championship.<\/p>\n

If Cunningham is unable to return on Wednesday, Daniss Jenkins and Marcus Sasser could both continue to have larger roles.<\/p>\n

Either way, it appears as though the star guard is ahead of schedule in his recovery, which is great news for Detroit as they prepare to make a run at a title.<\/p>\n
