The New Orleans Pelicans are adding Mike D’Antoni and Jarron Collins to the coaching staff. D’Antoni will serve in a consultant’s role, while Collins will become a full-time assistant coach under Head Coach Willie Green.
The two are joining assistant coaches Casey Hill, Fred Vinson and Teresa Weatherspoon, along with player development coaches Corey Brewer, Darnell Lazare and Beno Udrih on Green’s staff.
“This is a cohesive group of high-character individuals with diverse backgrounds and skill sets,” said Green. “I’m confident that their coaching and playing experience at the highest professional and collegiate levels, combined with their work ethic and team-focused approach, will help build the foundation we need to be successful.
