The electronic configuration of sulfur is
1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p4
p subshell consists of three orbitals px, py and pz
among them in sulfur for 3P4
px consists two electrons so which is paired
but py and pz consists of single electrons
so sulfur consists of 2 unpaired electrons
you can read Quantum number, Afbau principle and Hund's rule for more idea
