Cade Cunningham credits lessons from past mistakes for 52-point, zero-turnover night.

“Yeah, I mean just throughout my life, throughout my NBA career, seeing a lot of different coverages, I've seen a lot of different games, scenarios, and things like that. Having games where I missed every shot, having games where I turned the ball over a ton, all those things. So I would say all of those lessons kind of accumulate to my knowledge and where it's at now. And I still have a long way to go, but I thought tonight was a pretty good show for me.”

Mitchell says defenses stay attached to Klay Thompson.

“I think a lot of people know Klay are not trying to leave his body... So sometimes I get a little bit more space because they're not helping as much.”
