Cade Cunningham to Wear Retired No. 2 for Detroit Pistons

What’s in a number? For athletes, who tend to be a tad superstitious, it’s a lot.

Cade Cunningham, the No. 1 pick in this year’s NBA Draft, will get to wear his preferred No. 2 jersey, the same designation he used at Oklahoma State.

The Pistons organization retired the No. 2 jersey not for a former player, but for Hall of Fame coach Chuck Daly, signifying the two championships he brought to Detroit.

At his Pistons introductory press conference, Cade took the time to thank Daly’s daughter who signed off on the new face of the franchise donning dos.
