The Denver Nuggets have announced that they have hired Bob Weiss to the coaching staff.

He next got an opportunity with the Atlanta Hawks before having brief stints with both the Los Angeles Clippers and the Seattle Supersonics and then took time to coach in China. Weiss has been back in the NBA as an assistant since 2012 The connection to Denver is there though, Weiss spent several years as an assistant to George Karl while both were in Seattle.
