Peter Kelly Tripucka (born February 16, 1959 in Glen Ridge, New Jersey) was a National Basketball Association player for the Detroit Pistons, Utah Jazz, and Charlotte Hornets from 1981 to 1991.

After being drafted in the first round by the Pistons, Tripucka proved to be a prolific scorer, but a somewhat weak defensive player. In his last years with the expansion Hornets, he was among the team's leading scorers. In 2000, he was named to the National Polish-American Hall of Fame. He was color commentator for Detroit Pistons television for eight seasons, from 1993 to 2001, leaving to take a full-time radio job with the New Jersey Nets. From 2003-2005, he served as the color commentator for New Jersey Nets telecasts on the YES Network. He is currently a scout for the New York Knicks.
