The Long Island Nets filled their head coaching vacancy on Tuesday, reaching out to the parent Brooklyn Nets to hire former special assistant Will Weaver.
Weaver spent the last two seasons working as a special assistant for Brooklyn head coach Kenny Atkinson after serving in the same capacity under head coach Brett Brown with the Philadelphia 76ers.
The Long Island club is entering its third season as the Nets’ G-League affiliate. The G-League team announced the hiring in a press release.
Weaver replaces Ronald Nored, who was 44-56 in two seasons with Long Island — including a 27-23 mark in 2017-18.
