The 2012 team went to Spain where they played two exhibition games in Catalunya to honor the original Dreamers' groundbreaking trip there and sported the same jerseys Michael, Magic and Larry wore in '92.
Daly led the Dream Team to the Olympic gold medal in 1992 after winning back-to-back NBA championships with the Detroit Pistons
In 1996, he was voted one of the 10 greatest coaches of the NBA's first half-century, two years after being inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame. He was the first coach to win both NBA and Olympic titles.
He had a career regular-season record of 638-437 in 13 NBA seasons. In 12 playoff appearances, his teams went 75-51.
Daly was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in March 2009 and died on May 9, 2009. He was 78.
