"The Pistons have reached agreements with free agents Ben Gordon and Charlie Villanueva.

The Pistons offered Gordon, a guard, a five-year deal worth more than $50 million. According to sources on both sides, Gordon accepted the parameters of the deal.

Villanueva agreed to a five-year $35 million deal. No deals can be signed until July 8.

Gordon and Charlie Villanueva showed up at the practice facility Wednesday to meet with president Joe Dumars.

Both players, teammates on the 2003-04 Connecticut team, were the top free-agent targets for the Pistons.

Gordon, 26, averaged 20.7 points for the Bulls last season, and was brilliant in the seven-game playoff series against the Celtics, averaging 24 points.

Villanueva, 24, is 6-foot-11 and coming off the best year of his career, averaging 16.2 points and 6.7 rebounds for the Bucks. Although Cleveland and Toronto have expressed interest, Detroit was expected to be able to offer him more money, perhaps starting between $6.5 million and $7 million. "
