Before getting the Clippers job, Billups was a candidate for the Indiana Pacers coaching job, which went to Nate Bjorkgren.
Billups is a five-time All-Star, three-time All-NBA member, and the 2004 Finals MVP when he led the Detroit Pistons in their championship conquest opposite the star-studded Los Angeles Lakers.
The man known as “Mr. Big Shot” has worked as an analyst since retiring in 2014.
