Shane Battier is an American professional basketball player with the Houston Rockets of the National Basketball Association and the U.S. national team.
Battier is perhaps best well known for his accomplishments as a college player at Duke University, where he played under head coach Mike Krzyzewski. He led the Blue Devils to two Final Fours, in 1999 and 2001. The Blue Devils lost to the Connecticut Huskies in the 1999 finals, but came back to win the national championship by defeating the Arizona Wildcats two years later. In 2001, Battier swept the major National Player of the Year awards, and subsequently had his jersey number 31 retired by the Blue Devils
