Jamie Maclaren should stay in the A-League for at least two more seasons before testing himself in Europe, Brisbane coach John Aloisi reckons.Maclaren earned his first Socceroos cap earlier this year after emerging as the A-Leagues best Australian striker with 20 goals last season, only behind golden boot winner Bruno Fornaroli.But instead of rushing off overseas, Aloisi believes the 23-year-old - who is off contract with the Roar at the end of the season - should hang around the domestic scene for a little while longer.Ive said it to Jamie and Ive said it publicly: Jamie needs to stay in the A-League a little bit longer, Aloisi told reporters on Tuesday.Do I think hell go overseas one day? Yes. Do I think hes going to be a regular Socceroo? Yes.But at the moment, Jamie needs to focus on playing well for Brisbane Roar.Hopefully, he stays another two seasons (so) he goes to the (2018) World Cup having had three good years under his belt.The Roar are soon expected to begin discussions with Maclaren over a new contract.If they cant tie him down, Maclaren will be free to sign a pre-contract with any new club in January before leaving on a free transfer at the end of the 2016-17 season.A club from a major European league reportedly made an approach last month for Maclaren, but he claims to be in no rush to leave Brisbane.Im happy here; thats a big part in football - if youre happy off the field, as well, and I definitely am, he said.With 20 goals (last season), its a lot to live up to but I believe I can do it.But its also about improving and I think Ive got a long way to go.With John, the coaching staff and some new faces around at the club as well, it should be a good environment to be in.Maclaren will spearhead the Roars attack in Wednesdays FFA Cup clash with Perth at Ballymore.

PAUL, Minn. Detroit Pistons big man Andre Drummond now has a big contract, too.Drummond agreed to terms on a five-year maximum contract worth $130 million on Friday, a person with knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press.The two sides started negotiating the contract after the market opened at midnight EDT on Friday and quickly found common ground before coming to full agreement in the afternoon, said the person who spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the deal cannot be signed until July 7.Drummond was a restricted free agent, but few in the league believed he was interested in entertaining other offers. The Pistons would have had the right to match any offer made by another team, and coach and team president Stan Van Gundy made it clear from the start that the burly center wasnt going anywhere.Detroit could offer Drummond more money and more years than any other team in the league, and Van Gundy put the maximum contract offer in front of him right from the start to take any guess work out of the process.Drummond averaged 16.2 points and an NBA-leading 14.8 rebounds for the Pistons last season, giving Van Gundy a powerful force in the paint to slug it out in the rugged Eastern Conference. His strength, size and throwback game certainly give the Pistons a different dimension in todays small-ball NBA.He has fast become a cornerstone of what Van Gundy is trying to do in his Detroit rebuilding project.Drummonds scoring and rebounding averages have risen annually, and he was an All-Star for the first time this past season.dddddddddddd The numbers he put up last season were the most robust by a Pistons big man since Bob Lanier in 1972-73. And it was almost a certainty that Drummond would be rewarded with a massive contract, especially with the salary cap soaring from $70 million this past season to somewhere around $95 million for next season.The only thing slowing Drummond down is a 35.5 percent free throw rate that causes Van Gundy to bench him late in games when opponents foul him on purpose to put him on the line. Van Gundy has said he is confident Drummond can make drastic improvements in that area of his game to make him and even bigger force for Detroit.Van Gundys rebuilding project has formed a new identity for the franchise around a group of young players including Drummond, Tobias Harris and Reggie Jackson.But it all starts with Drummond, who draws immediate double teams in the post to open things up for his teammates on the perimeter. Van Gundy followed a similar model in building the Orlando Magic into an Eastern Conference power by surrounding powerful center Dwight Howard with shooters and defensive stoppers on the wing.The deal has a player option for the final season.---AP Basketball Writer Tim Reynolds contributed to this report.
