Mr. Cunningham was a first round draft pick ahead of Jae Crowder and Draymond Green. He played for the Idaho Stampede and the Jazz in Summer League as well as several NBA teams.
48. Jared Cunningham - Santa Cruz: 14 points, 2.9 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.2 steals on 38% from the field and 30% from 3 on 3.9 attempts in 3.9 attempts per game with Germany Basket Brescia in the Eurocup and Italian Lega A.
17.2 points, 3.7 assists, 3.2 rebounds and 1.2 steals per game on 39% from the field and 31% from beyond the arc on 5.1 attempts per game in 69 total G League games.
After spending the last three years playing ball in China, Germany and Italy, Cunningham will return to America and the G League as a member of the Santa Cruz Warriors. While he’s been collecting stamps in his passport for the past few years, the veteran is no stranger to the G League. In fact, that’s where he spent the first three years of his pro career, where Cunningham played with Texas, Bakersfield, Delaware and Idaho. The best of those seasons came in 2014 where he put up 18.7 points, 3.1 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 1.2 steals per game on 42% from the field and 32% from 3 as a member of the Delaware 87ers (now Blue Coats).
Like the aforementioned Simmons, Cunningham has struggled with efficiency during his pro career. When he was actually on, the 6’5 guard stood as one of the most electrifying offensive players in the league due to his ability to explode to the rim and hit the occasional mid-range jumper. As you can see from the clip below, that explosiveness has persisted into his overseas run.
Returning to the G League as an experienced 28-year-old that’s been around the globe, the 6’5 guard will add veteran experience to a Santa Cruz Warriors team with a lot of veteran talent. Although it’s unclear how many minutes he’ll get with the team that already has Damion Lee, Juan Toscano-Anderson, Aaron Harrison and Jeremy Pargo, Cunningham should still stand as a solid part of the squad.
