Today’s feature is a guy many had a lot of expectations for entering the NBA, none more than Pistons then president and general manager Joe Dumars, who selected Stuckey 15th overall in 2007 as the inevitable replacement for 2004 NBA finals MVP Chauncey Billups. Expectations exceeding in hindsight, but at the time Stuckey fit the mold of what Joe Dumars and Detroit would covet, for their physical, hard hat and lunch pale culture. A guy that presented that physical advantage at 6’5 every night over point guards in the league at the time, with and NBA champion, finals mvp, and possible future HOFer to study and learn from every day in the same locker room, and an organization highly invested in seeing him become a cornerstone for their franchise going forward, and opportunity fully invested in him to become exactly what he was meant to be. I remember that time in the NBA, and all everyone could talk about was how Rodney Stuckey was the next Dwayne Wade and a soon replacement for Mr big shot. After just 2 games his second year, Detroit made Stuckey the starting point guard, trading Chauncey Billups to the Nuggets for Allen Iverson. Stuckey didn't become what many thought after the departure of the legend Chauncey Billiups. What happened? Replacing A Legend: Rodney Stuckey Stunted Growth Story
