Steve Nash is starting to fill his coaching staff and his top pick, like the Nets’ decision to hire him, is a shock
Six-time All-Star Amar’e Stoudemire has struck a deal to join the team of new Brooklyn Nets coach Steve Nash as an assistant coach, according to sources at @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium Nash and Stoudemire played together in Phoenix
Stoudemire also played two years in Phoenix with Sean Marks In addition, Frank Isola reported that Mike D’Antoni, who coached the Suns at the time, is a candidate for another assistant position Jacque Vaughn, who was an interim coach after Kenny Atkinson was fired, is safe in the post of senior assistant
Like Nash, Stoudemire, who last played in the NBA in the 2015-16 season, has no coaching experience, but he has two major qualifications: a relationship with Nash from their seven years together at Phoenix and the respect he earned during a 14-year NBA career The fact that he was also a fan-favorite in New York with the Knicks for over four seasons probably didn’t hurt either.
For the past five years, Stoudemare has played in Israel and China In July, he helped Maccabi Tel Aviv win the Israeli League Championship while also earning MVP honors in the final
During his NBA career, Stoudemire averaged 9 points and 78 rebounds in 846 games
