The Atlanta Hawks announced a few coaching hires and staff adjustments Friday afternoon as we quickly head into the offseason.
The recent reports were confirmed that Jamelle McMillan, former New Orleans Pelicans assistant and Nate McMillan’s son, along with Joe Prunty, a long time NBA assistant coach with lengthy stops with the San Antonio Spurs, Dallas Mavericks, Cleveland Cavaliers and Milwaukee Bucks, would be joining McMillan’s staff as assistant coaches.
Prunty has been in the NBA as an assistant coach for 23 years, and spent three of those years under Nate McMillan when the latter was the head coach of the Portland Trail Blazers (2008-10).
