According to reports from ESPN’s Ian Begley, Jud Buechler may be the newest assistant to join the New York Knicks and David Fizdale’s coaching staff. In addition to Buechler, Keith Smart is expected to be one of Fizdale’s right-hand men.
According to Begley, Buechler and the Knicks are “talking seriously” about bringing him in to possibly focus on player development. That seems to be a buzzword surrounding this Knicks team and more specifically, Fizdale’s staff.
Buechler won three titles as a player with the Chicago Bulls and played under former Knicks president Phil Jackson.
