Chauncey Billups Returns to Pistons on 2-Year Deal

Don’t look now, but with the addition of Josh Smith and now Chauncey Billups, the Detroit Pistons roster isn’t too shabby at all. Billups has agreed to return to the Motor City on a 2-year deal.

Billups will come off the bench as he grooms Brandon Knight, but in all honesty, Chauncey is still plenty effective and is probably a better player option than Knight, but Brandon is the future.

Chauncey Billups has reached agreement on a two-year contract to return to the Detroit Pistons, league sources told Yahoo! Sports.

The deal will be worth $5 million-plus for Billups, league sources said.

Billups, 36, hopes to finish his career where it blossomed in the glory years of the Billups-Richard Hamilton-Ben Wallace Pistons of the mid-2000s. Billups will play the part of mentor for young Detroit guard Brandon Knight, and be a rotation guard off the bench for Detroit.
