While the additions of Daryl Morey and Doc Rivers may (rightfully) hog the headlines, the Sixers also added former Clippers assistant Sam Cassell to the coaching staff. He may not have the same name value as these other two, but Cassell has a chance to make an immediate impact on the current roster.
Sam Cassell – The player
After a 15 year playing career, Sam Cassell began his journey in coaching right away. During his time as a player, Cassell made the All-Star game and All-NBA team once and has 3 championship rings to his name.
