Former NBA forward Shane Battier seems to be enjoying life after basketball. Now with the Miami Heat as a “team ambassador,” Battier was called on to help out with the announcement that legendary musician Billy Joel would be playing at the Heat’s arena in January.
Part of “helping out” included Battier getting behind a piano and doing his best Joel impression, one which was pretty damn awful.
Even though Battier is a pretty crappy singer, you’ve gotta give him credit for trying. It’s not easy to go in front of a crowd of people and sing (I certainly would never do it) so points for effort.
With that being said, Battier – who can actually play the piano – might want to pass the mic to someone else for vocals if he ever hopes to become a musician.
