Cade Cunningham pulled off a remarkable dunk highlight that resembled Vince Carter during the Detroit Pistons' NBA Cup matchup against the Brooklyn Nets.

Going into the contest, the Pistons have had a strong start to the 2025-26 season. They are rolling with an ongoing four-game win streak, standing out as one of the best performing teams in the league.

Cunningham is going through the fifth season of his NBA career, building on his growth as an All Star for the Pistons. He led them to the playoffs last season, seeking to take them to the next level this year.

The star guard continues to show off his signature skillset in games, with this matchup against Brooklyn being no exception. Making a steal to force a turnover, Cunningham used the open lane to throw down the windmill jam.
