AUBURN HILLS - It's finally official.
Chauncey Billups has reached a multi-year agreement to
remain with the Pistons, his agent Andy Miller
confirmed Friday afternoon.
"We're ecstatic to come to an agreement with the
Pistons," Miller said. "This is where Chauncey wants
to finish his career."
Billups will sign a five-year, $60.5 million contract. The final year is not guaranteed..
Miller said that the negotations were focused all
along with Detroit.
"Chauncey told me before the process 'Don't look
outside the Pistons. Let's give them every opportunity
and go from there,'" Miller said. "They were his first
option and no other team was remotely close."
