Utah Jazz assistant Antonio Lang ‘blessed’ to be promoted to front of bench

SALT LAKE CITY — All of the hard work from Utah Jazz assistant coach Antonio Lang hasn’t gone unnoticed.

With former Jazz assistant Igor Kokoskov recently accepting the lead position for the Phoenix Suns, the team announced Saturday that Lang has been promoted to the front of the bench starting next season.

Snyder has yet to announce the Jazz’s lead assistant as he continues to enjoy the offseason, but Lang is excited to take the next step of his career.

“I’m just happy to be part of a group of special people,” Lang told the Deseret News.
