It is official! Billups has opt out of his contract and will become a Free Agent! Where will he go? There are rumours that he will go to Milwaukee!
The Chauncey Billups-to-the-Bucks rumor just won't fade away, though Detroit Pistons general manager Joe Dumars has publicly vowed to re-sign Billups.
Billups had expressed interest last fall in signing with the Milwaukee Bucks when he becomes a free agent. The Bucks are one of the few teams that could afford to sign a high-profile free agent like Billups, who the Bucks see as an established veteran who could lead their offense and alleviate the pressure on star shooting guard Michael Redd.
