Evan Battey is an assistant coach/quality control analyst for the Colorado men's basketball team, beginning his duties on July 8, 2024.
 
One of the most iconic figures in the recent era of Colorado men’s basketball, Battey returns to Boulder after playing for the Lugano Tigers of the Switzerland Basketball League in 2023-24 where he averaged 19.1 points 8.0 rebounds and 3.1 assists over 26 games. He spent his first professional season with Rilski Sportist in Bulgaria, averaging 8.0 points and 4.0 rebounds in 29 contests.
 
Battey enjoyed a storied playing career at Colorado between 2017-22. After redshirting the 2017-18 season, he was on the floor for 88 wins over the course of the next four years, the most in team history. He didn’t miss a game in his four-year playing career, appearing in 133 contests with 108 starts. Battey helped Colorado to the 2021 NCAA Tournament and a pair of postseason NIT appearances. A certain second NCAA bid in 2020 was wiped away due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

A native of Los Angeles, Battey is one of 12 Buffaloes to record at least 1,300 points and 600 rebounds. He finished his career ranking fourth in games played, eighth in starts, 15th in minutes (3,313) and 18th in points (1,307) and rebounds (667). Over the course of his career, he averaged 9.8 points and 5.0 rebounds while shooting 50.2 percent overall from the field and 74.8 percent from the free throw line.
 
Battey earned All-Pac-12 Conference Second Team honors as a senior in 2021-22, averaging 12.4 points and 4.7 rebounds ranking second on the team in both categories. He led the Pac-12 in 3-point accuracy both overall (.488) and in conference play (.541).  He was a 2021-22 Senior CLASS Award First Team All-American and earned his bachelor's degree in Journalism from Colorado in May 2021.
