The Greensboro Swarm announced Joe Wolf as the team’s new head coach today. Here is some information about the 53-year old for those who may not know him.
(On a side note, it’s interesting how the Hornets management has doubled down and chose two men who are way above the average height for both the organizations head coaching positions. James Borrego for the Hornets stands at 6’5, while Wolf stands at 6’11.)
Anyways, back to Wolf.
One of the growing trends of new basketball coaches is that of their past playing careers. Kenny Atkinson, Tyronn Lue, and Fred Hoiberg are all examples of NBA players who have transitioned into the head coaching world.
