Rodney Stuckey is one of the more interesting figures in recent Pistons history. Although Stuckey never developed into the truly dominant guard that the Pistons hoped he would be when they selected him with the 15th pick of the 2007 Draft, he has been a loyal and consistent performer in Detroit for a number of years.

Stuckey is an explosive offensive weapon who can act as a real difference-maker, but he has been dogged by inconsistency throughout his time in Detroit. If Stuckey could have maintained his highest levels of performance, the Pistons may have been a very different team over the past ten years or so.

In his seven seasons with the Detroit Pistons, Stuckey has made countless big plays and big shots. Although he may not have turned out quite as well as everyone in Detroit wanted, Stuckey has still been an excellent performer for the Pistons over a sustained period of time.
