Webber chooses Pistons

? Chris Webber will sign with the Detroit Pistons, returning to the area where he starred in college and was tarnished in a booster scandal.

The five-time All-Star was waived by the Philadelphia 76ers last week. He becomes an unrestricted free agent after clearing waivers today, freeing him to sign a new deal.

Webber has career averages of 21.4 points and 10 rebounds. He was one of the NBA’s top players in his prime.
