Let’s throw it back to early 2007 for C-Web’s first start while wearing the Pistons red white and blue.

Webber played 17 minutes off the bench in what was eventually a 100-99 loss at home to the Utah Jazz. He scored two points and grabbed down five rebounds in the contest.

He did this while wearing No. 84 because No. 4 was already retired for Joe Dumars. Webber said he chose the number because of his nephew.
