Additionally, 10-year NBA veteran Jarron Collins is joining New Orleans as an assistant coach, a source said.

I know everyone has speculated that this would be the case now, but don't think its been reported by any major publication or source until now.

EDIT: FULL STAFF is officially announced by team:

Here's the official announcement. Collins and D'Antoni will work alongside Casey Hill, Fred Vinson and Teresa Weatherspoon on Willie Green's staff.

Corey Brewer, Darnell Lazare and Gora—excuse me, Beno Udrih back as New Orleans' player development coaches.

He's a good coach and Willie Green's pretty much best friend, so it was expected.

Mac bumped a tweet from two weeks ago about Willie working on Collins and Griff working on Lee after 5 mins before this broke. I wonder if they somehow got Lee too? It could have just been in reference to Collins though.

Eta: NVM...here's the full staff:

So, other than Collins, same staff as last year, with D'Antoni as a consultant?

Guessing Collins is the lead assistant

MDA as the OC
Collins as DC
Hill is a developmental guy of sorts
Vinson gonna Vinson
Weatherspoon??

Love having Brewer and Beno back too

Yes.

Our entire coaching staff is made up of guys and gal that players love. Mike D'Antoni can be that guidance Willie will need to make the transition into HC.

Only thing that maybe could've been better was Mike D in same role and Sam Mitchell as lead

I think it's a great staff.

Blows ron jeremy's out the water.

Everything is coming together nicely on the coaching side.

There are glowing quotes out there from Klay, Steph, Draymond, Kerr etc about Collins. Most deem him as a future HC
