Cunningham will likely start as shooting guard Friday night when the Cavaliers face the 76ers, Jason Lloyd of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
It appears as if Cunningham will get his first NBA start Friday night considering he was wearing a red starter's jersey during the Cavaliers' morning shoot around Friday, while Richard Jefferson was dressed in a white bench player's jersey. The 24-year-old is averaging 4.2 points and shooting 50 percent from the floor and could see increased numbers assuming he starts Friday.
