It was a big night at the Palace of Auburn Hills on Sunday, as the Detroit Pistons retired former shooting guard Richard Hamilton's No. 32 at halftime of their game against the Boston Celtics.
After being introduced by legendary Pistons PA announcer John Mason, Hamilton saw his number raised to the rafters.

Hamilton played for Detroit from 2002-11, helping the team win the 2004 NBA championship.
This is the Pistons' final season in Auburn Hills, as they're moving to downtown Detroit to play in the new Red Wings arena next season.
