Legendary sports agent Arn Tellem, who's negotiated more than $3.5 billion in contracts for baseball and basketball players while building a reputation as one of the most powerful men in sports, is leaving that world behind to join the Pistons and Palace Sports & Entertainment.
"Arn is one of the most accomplished and respected sports executives in the world," owner Tom Gores said in a statement "He is an outstanding addition to our leadership team who will help make us make a real difference in Detroit."
Tellem will move to Detroit, serve as the vice chairman of PS&E and will report directly to Gores.
