Michael Scotto revealed Thursday that two of the big holes left by recent departures —director of scouting and Long Island Nets GM — could soon be filled by Nets scout Matt Riccardi ... who had recently been pursued by the Memphis Grizzlies.
The Nets have lost four key staffers in recent weeks — Assistant GM Trajan Langdon, Global Scouting Director Gianluca Pascucci, Long Island Nets head coach Will Weaver and Assistant Coach Chris Fleming.
A little more than a week ago, the Nets hired two new assistant coaches: Jeff Peterson from the Hawks and Andy Birdsong from the Spurs.
