Luke Walton is wasting no time filling up his open associate coaching positions. One of those spots will be going to Bob Beyers who served on OKC Thunder Head Coach Billy Donovan‘s staff since 2018.
As per Sam Amick, other positions will be filled by Jesse Mermuys who coached with Walton on the LA Lakers staff and Roy Rana. I’m thrilled for Rana who is well known in Toronto and Canada. Many thought Rana had a great shot at landing the open Canadian National team spot which now appears to be going to Raptors Head Coach Nick Nurse.
