Who is Josh Cunningham? Looking at career and personal life of former Dayton Flyer

Josh Cunningham has been in the headlines due to his relationship with A'ja Wilson.

Cunningham and Wilson became a pair years ago. Although the Las Vegas Aces superstar admitted that the former Dayton Flyer isn’t much of a talker, she appreciated that part of Cunningham.

Wilson conveyed her affection for Josh in 2018, stating:

"Look I can't tell you how many people I meet in a day, how many people I run into and talk to. But there's just something about Josh. It's his personality and who he is as a man that I just really enjoy. I enjoy having him as a boyfriend."

Wilson wanted Cunningham to enroll at the University of South Carolina. Her boyfriend, though, decided to study at the University of Dayton, where he also starred for the basketball team.

Cunningham’s weakness, which is his free-throw shooting, is something the WNBA superstar nags him about:

“Work on your free throws. He’s probably tired of hearing it from me. But that’s the hard part of having a girlfriend who’s a basketball player, too.”

Cunningham went undrafted in the 2019 NBA Draft, so he played for the Westchester Knicks in the G-League for one season. He later took his talents to New Zealand to suit up for the Southland Sharks in the NBL.

A'ja Wilson and Josh Cunningham were in a long-distance relationship early on. They had to go through that same situation when Cunningham played in the NBL.

Both reportedly unfollowed each other on social media, sparking rumors that the two had gone their separate ways.

Cunningham also had stints with ZZ Leiden in the Netherlands, the Southland Sharks in New Zealand, and SKK Borac in Bosnia.

Cunningham's parents are LaTanya and Johnny Cunningham and he has two siblings, Alex and Nick.
