While Stuckey would be thrilled to go just about anywhere, his dream destination is Detroit. The Pistons were one of the first teams to scout Stuckey. Former personnel director Scott Perry, now with Seattle, watched Stuckey as a freshman when Eastern Washington played at Cal State Fullerton.
"It's my style of play, and they've compared me to a Chauncey Billups-type guard," Stuckey said. "I'm a big guard [6-foot-5], and they need a backup point guard. I can learn from the best people: Rip Hamilton, Chauncey, Flip Saunders and Joe Dumars. It's a great organization. It's perfect for me."
The Pistons see Stuckey as a player similar to Dumars and Lindsey Hunter: someone from a small school who plays with an edge. Dumars and Hunter played at McNeese State and Jackson State, respectively.
