Baller Move: Short Term Add
Analysis: Cunningham is a speculative short-term pick-up, as we don’t know the severity of the knee injury suffered by Ronny Turiaf on Wednesday night. However, if Turiaf were to miss any amount of time with Nikola Pekovic already out, Dante would become one of the last men standing in the front court for the ‘Wolves alongside Kevin Love. Cunningham has managed 7.9 rebounds, 1.2 blocks and 1.4 steals per 36 minutes this year. If he can get anywhere near 30 minutes a game, he can put up plus numbers in each category and the rebounds, blocks and steals are something you can believe in. Cunningham becomes a reasonable streaming option if Turiaf does miss any games. If Turiaf is fine, forget I said anything and go back to reading about ridiculous trade rumors.
