Higgins comes to the Jazz after being an assistant coach for the Houston Rockets since 2020. Before that, he was an assistant coach with Steve Clifford with the Orlando Magic and with the Charlotte Hornets as a video coordinator.
It’s another coaching hire that helps get the Jazz at full strength as they prepare for next season.
