SALT LAKE CITY — Quin Snyder added a familiar face from his past to his coaching staff.
Jeff Watkinson, who was the Atlanta Hawks' strength and conditioning coach, is joining the Utah Jazz in an assistant coaching position, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Watkinson worked with Snyder for one year in Atlanta, where the current Jazz head coach was an assistant in 2013-14. The two also worked together during Snyder's stint as a college coach at Missouri.
It's unknown what specific role Watkinson will assume in Utah, but the AJC reported he will have coaching responsibilities.
