He is currently a [[Color commentator|radio analyst]] for the [[Detroit Pistons]],<ref name="announcer">[http://www.nba.com/pistons/multimedia/radio_television_announcers.html Pistons Announcers]</ref> works as a co-host/analyst on [[SiriusXM NBA Radio]], and during the summer is the [[head coach]] of the [[Aliens (basketball)|Aliens]] of the [[BIG3]].

Mahorn had a reputation for physical play, and was a member of the late 1980s [[Detroit Pistons]] teams known as "The Bad Boys", and with them won the 1989 [[NBA Championship]].  
After his playing career, Mahorn would go on to be an assistant coach under Pistons teammate and head coach [[Bill Laimbeer]] with the [[Detroit Shock]] of the [[Women's National Basketball Association]] (WNBA) and was part of two [[WNBA Championship]] teams (2006, 2008).
