First Slovenian NBA player Marko Milic joins Mavericks coaching staff

The Dallas Mavericks already have an awesome coaching staff. There was plenty of healthy skepticism surrounding the Jason Kidd hire, but he’s done a nice job thus far, and the staff that is surrounding him is fantastic. You’ve got Jared Dudley, Sean Sweeney, Kristi Toliver, and God Shammgod, just to name a few.

Now, per Marc Stein, the Dallas Mavericks are planning to add another potential All-Star assistant coach in Marko Milic.

Milic was the first Slovenian NBA player. He was drafted by the Phoenix Suns in the second round of the 1997 NBA Draft, becoming teammates with Jason Kidd.
