The “Going to Work” Detroit Pistons will be forever treasured in Detroit sports lore as being a squad solely built on teamwork and chemistry rather than superstars. And of course, it culminated in the franchise’s third NBA title, taking down the superstar laden Los Angeles Lakers in 2004.
And now, three members from that legendary team have the chance to be honored in the 2020 NBA Hall of Fame draft class.
Chauncey Billups, Richard “Rip” Hamilton, and Ben Wallace were all included on the list of eligible candidates to be inducted into the NBA Hall of Fame next year.

The list of eligible candidates also includes the likes of former Michigan Basketball star Chris Webber, Kevin Garnett, and Chris Bosh.
