Jason Terry returning to NBA as Jazz assistant coach

The Utah Jazz opted not to go with Jason Terry as their head coach, but that hasn’t kept the Jet from landing in Salt Lake City.

New Jazz coach Will Hardy is adding the former Arizona Wildcats guard and longtime NBA standout to his first coaching staff as an assistant, according to NBA insider Shams Charania.

Terry had spent the past season as head coach of the G League’s Grand Rapids Gold, going 17-15 but missing out on the postseason. Prior to that he was an assistant for one season at Arizona on Sean Miller’s final staff in 2020-21.
