Season Averages: 3.8 PPG, 1.5 RPG, 2.2 APG, 0.4 SPG, 0.1 BPG, FG% 30.4, 3PT%  29.2, FT% 83.3

The signing of Chauncey Billups was a beautifully sentimental idea. From a basketball point of view it made sense, too. If healthy, Billups could have acted as the sensible anchor for a wild and unpredictable Pistons squad, but it wasn’t to be. Injury shot Billups down early in the season, and it looks likely to be the end of his accomplished career. For Pistons fans, at least it finished in Detroit, where he will be a legend for years to come.

In need of improving: His knowledge of X’s and O’s, and motivational speeches. Billups on-court persona makes him an ideal candidate to become a coach in the near future.

Grade: Incomplete due to injury
