The Clippers lost three assistants this offseason, as Kenny Atkinson got a promotion to co-lead assistant in Golden State, and Chauncey Billups became the head coach in Portland, taking Roy Rogers with him.
In their stead, the Clippers recruited another talented group of assistants to help lead the franchise in the 2021-22 season.
Brian Shaw’s hiring was reported back in July, and his ties to Ty Lue and Paul George date back decades. He’s a like-for-like replacement for Billups. The team also confirmed the hire of Jay Larranaga, who spent the last nine seasons as an assistant in Boston, meaning he overlapped with Lue on the Celtics for one year.
