The New Orleans Pelicans are in the process of making one more splashy addition before the start of next week’s training camp. According to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, Teresa Weatherspoon will be joining Alvin Gentry’s coaching staff for the upcoming season.
Avid basketball fans should be familiar with the name. Weatherspoon, affectionately known as T-Spoon, is regarded as one of the all-time WNBA greats. She was enshrined in the Naismith Hall of Fame earlier this month after an impressive but short eight-year career with the New York Liberty and Los Angeles Sparks.
