Cade Cunningham shares a powerful message about his aura

Now that the All-Star Game is over, Cade Cunningham will turn their attention to helping Detroit Pistons maintain their supremacy in the Eastern Conference.
Cunningham helped the All-Star Team win the All-Star Game at the Intuit Dome on Sunday after defeating the Team Stripes, 47-21, in the mini-tournament final. He scored 14 points, seven rebounds, seven assists and three steals in three games.
The 24-year-old guard played in his second consecutive All-Star Game, underscoring the fact that he has become one of the best players in the NBA. His confidence was through the roof, and rubbed off on the Pistons.
When a reporter asked Cunningham where he got his aura from, he did grounded answer.
“I get my aura from Jesus Christ, my lord and savior, and God blessed me with parents who raised me in a way that I wouldn’t trade for the world,” Cunningham, who grew up in Arlington, Texas, said in a video posted by Detroit Free Press Omari Sankofa II.

He did not shy away from talking about his faith in public. He sees it as key to the way he approaches life, how he deals with pressure and how he tries to be a positive influence.
Cunningham relied heavily on his faith when he suffered a calf injury at the end of the 2022-2023 season, just his second year in the NBA. He was limited to just 12 games. Since his return, he has only gotten better, stronger and wiser.
The Pistons are atop the Eastern Conference at 40-13, including 8-2 in their last 10 games.
They will return to action on Thursday against the New York Knicks.
