Mark Cuban explains why Jason Terry will be ‘amazing’ as Arizona’s assistant coach

A few hours after being announced as the Arizona Wildcats’ new assistant coach, Jason Terry received some high praise from his former boss.

Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban said Terry is “going to be amazing as a coach.”

“He knows how to relate to young players,” Cuban explained. “He is patient and understanding. He works well with parents. He has the complete package. I’m super excited for him. This is just the beginning of a long coaching career.”

Cuban and Terry go way back. Prior to accepting the Arizona assistant coaching job, Terry was the assistant general manager of the Texas Legends, the Mavericks’ G League affiliate.
