Chris Mullin Hires Mitch Richmond as St. John’s Assistant

St. John’s added a second Hall of Famer to its coaching staff Tuesday, hiring Mitch Richmond as a special assistant to his former N.B.A. teammate, Coach Chris Mullin.

From 1989 to 1991, Mullin and Richmond represented two-thirds of the dynamic, run-and-gun Golden State Warriors group that became known as Run TMC. The nickname — incorporating the first initials of Mullin, Richmond, and point guard Tim Hardaway — was generated by fans and endured as one of the N.B.A.’s most popular marketing monikers of the decade.

Richmond was enshrined in the Hall of Fame in 2014, three years after Mullin.
