Cunningham recorded eight points (4-6 FG) and four rebounds over 21 minutes Wednesday in a win over the Bucks.
EDGE Analysis
After being ruled out just before the start of Monday's game, Cunningham was good to go Wednesday and saw about his usual role. The injury didn't seem to limit Cunningham at all Wednesday, and shouldn't be an issue going forward.

Cunningham (knee) is expected to play in Wednesday's game against the Bucks.
EDGE Analysis
Cunningham was a late scratch from Monday's tilt with the Rockets, but appears to be ready to rejoin the lineup Wednesday. However, with Anthony Davis (groin) expected back as well, Cunningham will have to settle for a reserve role, which will limit his overall impact for fantasy purposes.

Cunningham (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Bucks.
EDGE Analysis
Cunningham was a late scratch for Monday's game against the Rockets due to an unspecified knee injury. It doesn't appear to be serious, however, as he's being listed as questionable in advance of Wednesday's game. An update on his status will likely be provided after he tests the injury out in morning shootaround. Anthony Davis (groin) is also being listed as questionable. If one, or both, of Davis and Cunningham are out, the Pelicans may have to dig deep for frontcourt depth.

EDGE Analysis
Cunningham was initially slated to start Monday, but was ruled out just before tipoff with a knee injury. The severity of the injury is unknown at this time, making Cunningham questionable for Wednesday's game against the Bucks. Darius Miller got the start in place of Cunningham and would likely get the start Wednesday again if Cunningham is unable to play.

Cunninham is now considered questionable for Monday's game against the Rockets due to a knee injury, as well as a last minute scratch from the starting lineup,
EDGE Analysis
The team announced Cunningham would start in place of Anthony Davis (left adductor) roughly 30 minutes before game-time, but replaced Cunningham with Darius Miller moments before tip-off. Cunningham was not on the injury report heading into the game, so it remains to be seen what happened to cause the late switch. His status is up on the air at this point.

He had started in Davis' place three of the previous five games, and posted 8.7 points, 9.0 rebounds, 0.7 steals, 0.7 blocks. and 1.0 triples across 24.9 minutes during that span.

Cunningham, with Anthony Davis (groin) back in the starting five and expected to play around 25 minutes, will come off the bench for Friday's game against the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Cunningham had started the three games Davis was sidelined for, averaging 8.7 points and 9.0 rebounds across 25.0 minutes. Despite coming off the pine, he may not see much of a role reduction, as he's averaging 22.9 minutes per game on the season, posting 5.5 points and 4.1 rebounds.

Cunningham is questionable to return to Wednesday's game against the Spurs due to a right knee injury.
EDGE Analysis
While Cunningham is sidelined, Tony Allen and E'Twuan Moore will seemingly help pick up slack at the position. More word on the severity of the injury should arrive during the game or afterward.

Cunningham will come off the bench for Monday's game against the Thunder, Will Guillory of the Times-Picayune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Cunningham has started all 16 games he's played in this season, but hasn't necessarily been the most effective player, averaging 5.4 points and 3.6 rebounds across 25.3 minutes. That prompted the Pelicans to move E'Twaun Moore into the top unit at small forward, with Cunningham coming off the bench. Either way, Cunningham shouldn't be on the radar in the majority of fantasy leagues due to his low production across the board.
