Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham left the March 17 game against the Washington Wizards after just 5 minutes due to back spasms.
Cunningham was seemingly hurt while playing defense on Wizards guard Tre Johnson early in the first quarter.
Johnson lost the ball and Cunningham went to dive for the loose ball. Johnson went to regain his dribble and landed on top of Cunningham, who was descending to the hardwood.
Cunningham was slow to get off the floor but was eventually lifted up with the help of teammates Jalen Duren, Tobias Harris and Duncan Robinson.
