DETROIT -- A basketball official says the Detroit Pistons have agreed to a three-year contract extension with Richard Hamilton.


The official, who spoke Monday night to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity because the deal had not been announced, said two years of the contract are guaranteed and the third is partially guaranteed.
Hamilton's current $62 million, seven-year contract was signed five years ago.
The three-time All-Star helped the Pistons win the 2004 NBA title and advance to the Eastern Conference finals last season for the sixth straight year.
Washington drafted the shooting guard No. 7 overall in 1999 after he led Connecticut to a national title. The Wizards traded him to Detroit three years later for Jerry Stackhouse
