The Aliens had a choppy introduction to the BIG3, going 3-5 and missing the playoffs in 2019, but they’re looking to make some noise in their second season under the guidance of new coach Rick Mahorn. Returnees Brandon Rush, Shannon Brown and Greg Oden—who takes over as captain—will try to take the 2019 expansion team to the next level.
The well-rounded Aliens are tough in the paint, with the 7-foot Oden providing an inside presence, and from behind the arc. Rush was one of the BIG3’s best distance shooters in 2019, tying for first with 20 3-point shots made and matching teammate Brown with a perfect 4-point percentage.
Mahorn, who coached Trilogy to the first BIG3 championship in 2017, takes over as coach and will try to instill some of the legendary toughness he and his fellow Detroit Pistons displayed during the “Bad Boy” era.
