Randy Foye, a former New Jersey high school player of the year and standout at Newark's East Side High School, will have his No. 2 jersey retired at Villanova on Saturday at the Pavilion, according to a post on the school's website.
Foye was a consensus All-American and the Big East's player of the year as a senior in 2005-06. 
"I'm honored to be joining the elite company of Villanova Basketball players with their jersey retired," Foye said in a statement. "My four years on campus were extremely memorable and I appreciate everyone in the Nova Nation for their support. I'd like to thank Coach (Jay) Wright, my teammates and the entire staff who were instrumental in creating successful seasons during my career. Villanova Basketball is built on a tradition of hard work, togetherness and pride, and I've carried this positive attitude with me throughout my NBA career."
Foye was part of Villanova head coach Jay Wright's first full recruiting class.
Randy Foye, a Newark native, will become the 18th Villanova basketball player to have a jersey retired. He currently plays for the Los Angeles Clippers.
