On Thursday, the Sixers announced the hiring of Todd Wright as an Assistant Coach on Brett Brown's staff, as well as the team's Head of Strength and Conditioning. Philadelphia has also promoted former strength and conditioning coach Jesse Wright to a "newly created performance science position".
"We feel fortunate to now call Todd Wright a Sixer," said President of Basketball Operations and General Manager Sam Hinkie. "His reputation as a trainer of basketball players is second to none. His values and his ability to form genuine, lasting relationships with athletes to help them achieve their goals are both heavily aligned with our organization and with our player development in Philadelphia.
