As if dominating the collegiate level wasn’t enough, Coach Jay Wright will take his talents to the world stage with USA Basketball. San Antonio Spurs coach and recently named head coach of USA Basketball Gregg Popovich announced today that Wright would be joining Steve Kerr (Golden State Warriors) and Nate McMillan (Indiana Pacers) as the assistant coaches for the 2019-2020 USA Basketball Men’s National Team. The USA National Team is currently on a 76-game win streak featuring three-straight Olympic gold medals (2008, 2012, 2016) and back-to-back FIBA World Cup gold medals (2010 and 2014).
“It’s a great honor to work with these guys - to work with Nate, Steve, and under Pop is any coach’s dream.
