He was honored by the university in 2004 as the fifth player to have his jersey, number 4, retired.

Basketball career

High school

Chauncey Billups attended George Washington High School in Denver. While there, he was a four time All-State first team pick, the Mr. Colorado basketball pick three times, and Colorado Player of the Year as a sophomore and as a junior. He was selected to the 1995 McDonald's All-American Team but did not play due to injury.

Early NBA years

Drafted third overall in the 1997 NBA Draft by the Boston Celtics, Chauncey was traded to the Toronto Raptors in exchange for Kenny Anderson midway through his first season. In addition to the Raptors, he has also played for the Denver Nuggets as well as the Orlando Magic. He never actually played a game for them as he was on the injured list until season's end. He was signed by the Minnesota Timberwolves as a back-up to then point guard Terrell Brandon. Billups replaced the often-injured Brandon, and had a breakthrough 2001-2002 season. In June 2002, Billups signed in Detroit as a free agent to be the team's new starting point guard.

Detroit Pistons

Billups quickly established himself in the Pistons squad, earning respect from fans and colleagues for his tenacious defense and clutch shooting. He helped lead the Pistons to the 2004 NBA championship, averaging 21 points per game and 5.2 assists in the NBA Finals to earn the Finals MVP deservedly in a team dominated by outstanding teamwork. In 2005, the Pistons lost a heartbreaking finals in seven games to the San Antonio Spurs, in which Billups would have likely been Finals MVP again had they prevailed. He also earned a spot on the 2005 NBA Second All-Defensive Team, along with teammate Tayshaun Prince, while teammate and co-captain of the Pistons Ben Wallace took home the Defensive Player of the Year Award.

Billups is currently co-captain of the team (along with Ben Wallace). So far during the current 2005-2006 season, Billups is again leading the Detroit Pistons to a strong record via strong passing and clutch shots. The Pistons achieved the best record in the league at 64-18. Billups is second leading scorer on the Pistons this season (right behind Richard Hamilton), and fourth in the league in assists. He currently has the highest assists-per-turnover ratio in the league.

On February 9, 2006, for the first time in his career, Billups was selected to play in the 2006 NBA All-Star Game in Houston, Texas as a reserve guard for the Eastern Conference. Billups was also selected to participate in the 3 point contest. Billups was eliminated in the first round of the 3 point contest. He had 12 points.
