After a few weeks of reports from sourced reporters, the Dallas Mavericks have officially confirmed the coaching staff which will be working under new head coach Jason Kidd.
Last month, Tim MacMahan reported the Mavericks were close to hiring former Suns coach Igor Kokosov. Given the listing on the press release, it seems Kokosov is Kidd’s lead assistant coach. Kokosov was coach of the Slovenian national team in 2017, the year Slovenia won Eurobasket.
Sean Sweeney was the earliest reported hire, way back in early July by Marc Stein. He joins Kidd for the third time, working with Kidd in both Brooklyn and Milwaukee.
