🏀 Framed Autographed Dave Bing Detroit Pistons White Basketball Jersey — Beckett BAS COA — Washington, D.C. — Syracuse University — Detroit Pistons — 1968 NBA Scoring Champion — Seven-Time All-Star — Hall of Fame 1990 — 35x39 Framed Display — Beckett Authentication

🏀 The Detroit Pistons carry one of the richest histories in the NBA — a franchise that has produced championship teams, Hall of Fame players, and the specific competitive identity that the city of Detroit has attached to its professional basketball team as a reflection of the city's own character. Before the Bad Boys era of the late 1980s and early 1990s, before the 2004 championship team built around defensive excellence and ball movement, the Detroit Pistons were defined in significant part by the player who arrived from Washington, D.C. by way of Syracuse University with a scoring ability and an athletic profile that made him the second overall pick in the 1966 NBA Draft and eventually the city's most celebrated player of the 1960s and early 1970s. Dave Bing's career as a Detroit Piston established the standard of excellence that the franchise's Hall of Fame history is built on, and his 1990 induction into the Basketball Hall of Fame formalized what the basketball world had understood for decades. This framed 35x39 autographed Detroit Pistons white basketball jersey, signed by Dave Bing and authenticated by Beckett BAS with certificate of authenticity, is the display-ready piece from one of the franchise's most significant icons. Condition: NOS.

🌟 Washington, D.C. — The Making of a Hall of Famer

🌟 Dave Bing was born on November 24, 1943, in Washington, D.C. — a city where basketball culture has always competed with the political and governmental identity that defines the city's national presence, and where the playgrounds and the high school gyms have produced significant professional basketball talent across the sport's history. Bing developed in the Washington athletic environment before choosing Syracuse University — a program in central New York whose basketball tradition would later produce many notable professional players — where he developed the offensive arsenal and the competitive character that made him one of the most coveted guards available in the 1966 NBA Draft. Condition: NOS.

His selection by the Detroit Pistons with the 2nd overall pick in 1966 — behind only Cazzie Russell, who went to the New York Knicks first overall — gave the Pistons one of the most polished offensive guards to enter the league that year and set the course for a career that would eventually produce Hall of Fame recognition and the specific legacy that makes his signed jersey a piece of authentic Detroit basketball history. Condition: NOS.

🏆 Detroit Pistons — A Career That Defined an Era

🏆 Dave Bing's nine seasons with the Detroit Pistons from 1966 through 1975 produced the statistical foundation and the competitive reputation that his Hall of Fame career is built on — a point guard whose combination of scoring and playmaking gave the Pistons one of the most complete guard talents in the NBA during a period when the league was populated with the players who would define the modern professional game. His 1968 scoring championship — averaging 27.1 points per game over the course of the NBA regular season — placed him in the company of the most prolific scorers in the sport and established him as the standard-setter at his position for that period of Detroit basketball history. Condition: NOS.

Seven NBA All-Star selections across his career reflect the consistent recognition from coaches, players, and the basketball community that Dave Bing was one of the premier guards in the league for the better part of a decade — a reputation earned not in a single breakthrough season but across the sustained excellence that made him the first player whose number was retired by the Detroit Pistons franchise. The franchise reserved his jersey because his contributions to the organization were too significant to allow any subsequent player to wear the same number. Condition: NOS.

⭐ Beyond Basketball — A Remarkable Second Career

⭐ Dave Bing's post-basketball career is one of the most remarkable stories of an athlete's transition from sport to the larger world — a narrative of entrepreneurial achievement, civic commitment, and the specific application of the competitive instincts and the organizational discipline that professional basketball develops to the demands of business and public service. After retiring from the NBA in 1978, Bing founded Bing Steel in Detroit in 1980 — a steel distribution and manufacturing company that grew into one of the largest African American-owned businesses in the country, eventually becoming Detroit Manufacturing Systems, a significant employer in a city whose automotive and manufacturing economy was in the process of dramatic restructuring. Condition: NOS.

The success of his business career gave Bing the credibility and the civic standing that led to his election as Mayor of Detroit in 2009 — a role he held through 2013, navigating one of the most challenging periods in the city's history as Detroit managed the aftermath of the financial crisis and the municipal challenges that eventually led to the largest municipal bankruptcy in American history. From NBA scoring champion to Hall of Famer to successful entrepreneur to mayor of a major American city — the trajectory of Dave Bing's life beyond basketball is as remarkable as the career that preceded it. Condition: NOS.

🏅 The White Pistons Jersey — A Classic Detroit Display Piece

At 35x39, this framed jersey is a substantial display piece — the kind of framed sports memorabilia that becomes the focal point of a room rather than an addition to its existing decorative landscape, commanding the wall space with the combination of the jersey design and the authenticated signature that certifies its authenticity and its collecting significance.
