Cade Cunningham for MVP? Dunker mailbag + Unrivaled preview

We have a fun episode of The Dunker Spot coming your way!

Nekias Duncan and Steve Jones discuss Cade Cunningham's awesome performance against the Knicks (42 points, 8 rebounds, 13 assists, 1 steal, 2 blocks), as well as his status in the league. Is he gunning for MVP? Is he the best player in the league right now?

From there, the guys open up the Dunker Spot mailbag. They talk through anti-tanking proposals sent in by the Dunkers, explore the Dallas Wings' ability to compete immediately with Paige Bueckers, share their favorite-looking jumpers in the NBA and much more!

Finally, the guys preview the upcoming slate of Unrivaled games -- Angel Reese is back, y'all! -- with the playoffs rapidly approaching.
