Chauncey Billups announced today that after 17 seasons in the NBA, he is retiring.
Billups became an unrestricted free agent when the Pistons declined the second and final year of a contract option that would have paid him $2.5 million next season.
Billups said, “It’s just time. I’m happy, excited. The game was very, very good to me. I felt like I was equally as good to the game the way I played it and the way I respected it and the way I carried myself through the process.”
He has had a great career! Wishing him nothing but happiness in his future endeavors!
