The Portland Trail Blazers are looking to fill in some assistant roles on Chauncey Billups’ staff after the team announced it wouldn’t renew Scott Brooks nor Rodney Billups’ contracts.
The Blazers could be looking at a former head coach to make those changes, according to Rose Garden Report’s Sean Highkin.
Former Pacers head coach and Raptors assistant Nate Bjorkgren has been in attendance at the Blazers’ last few predraft workouts. Worth noting considering they currently have three open assistant spots to fill on Chauncey Billups’ staff.
Bjorkgren, who turns 49 later this month, started out as a G League assistant in 2007 and made his way to the NBA with the Phoenix Suns in 2015.
