Dwane Casey announced Sunday that he will step down as coach of the Detroit Pistons and will move into a front-office role.
Following a 103-81 loss to the Chicago Bulls in Detroit’s season finale, Casey walked away after the Pistons stumbled through a 17-65 season.
“Tom is giving me an opportunity to move into the front office,” Casey said, referring to Pistons owner Tom Gores. “I’m excited to go to the next phase of my life. Time to spend more time with my family. This team is on the right track. They probably need to hear a new voice. This is my decision.”
