Battier, 39, was born in Birmingham, Michigan and attended Detroit Country Day before attending Duke University. He spent 14 years playing in the NBA.
Battier is currently the Director of Basketball Analytics and Development for the Miami Heat.
The Pistons fired Stan Van Gundy earlier this month after four seasons. The team only made the playoffs one time during his four-year tenure.
