Stockton joins 'Dan Patrick Show' to explain his assistant coaching position

John Stockton, NBA Hall of Famer and former Utah Jazz point guard, speaks during a news conference on Tuesday, Oct. 27, 2015, in Bozeman, Mont. Stockton is a new assistant coach for the Montana State women's NCAA college basketball team.

When legendary former NBA point guard John Stockton concluded his career as the NBA’s all-time assists and steals leader, many pegged him as a future coach in the league.
