Cunningham was ejected in the third quarter of Sunday's game against the Suns after receiving his second technical foul. He finished the contest with 21 points (9-15 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four assists, one rebound and one steal in 25 minutes.

The ejection spelled an early end to what was shaping up to be a big game for the rookie No. 1 overall pick, who still managed to reach the 20-point threshold for the second time in his last 11 appearances. He received both of his technicals in the third quarter, with the first coming when he complained to the referee after he was assessed a personal foul while attempting to break up a lob to Suns center JaVale McGee. His second technical was assessed after he taunted the Suns' Cameron Payne following a reverse slam dunk. Cunningham is unlikely to face any additional punishment from the league, so he should be ready to go for the Pistons' upcoming four-game week, which kicks off Tuesday at Golden State.
