The Golden State Warriors have hired a pair of longtime NBA coaches and a recently retired NBA veteran to join Head Coach Steve Kerr on the bench, naming Alvin Gentry as associate head coach, along with Ron Adams and Luke Walton as assistant coaches, the team announced today. Additionally, the team has hired former NBA center Jarron Collins and former coach/scout Bruce Fraser as player development coaches. Per team policy, terms of the agreements were not disclosed.

“We’ve assembled a terrific coaching and player development staff that will feature a solid mix of experience and youth,” said Warriors Head Coach Steve Kerr. “Alvin and Ron are two highly-respected coaches who provide a wealth of NBA bench experience, which is extremely important to me as I enter my initial season. Luke and Jarron completed productive NBA careers in recent years that were highlighted by an abundance of winning, while Bruce has garnered well-rounded experience and expertise at both the NBA and collegiate levels. I’m really excited about the intangibles these gentlemen will bring to our team and I know they will serve as tremendous assets to me and our players.”

Gentry, 59, brings 25 seasons of NBA coaching experience to the Warriors, including parts of 12 seasons as head coach for the Phoenix Suns (2009-13), Los Angeles Clippers (2000-03), Detroit Pistons (1998-00) and Miami Heat (1995). He served last season as associate head coach of the Clippers, who led the NBA in scoring (107.9 points per game) and offensive rating (109.4).

In Golden State, Gentry is reunited with Kerr, who served as the Suns’ general manager during Gentry’s first two seasons as Phoenix’s head coach. Under the duo’s guidance in 2009-10, Phoenix averaged a league-best 110.2 points per game en route to a 54-28 record (.659) and a trip to the Western Conference Finals. Gentry posted a 158-144 mark (.523) in five seasons as head coach with the Suns, the fifth-most wins in franchise history, before mutually parting ways with the team midway through the 2012-13 campaign. In 12 NBA seasons overall as a head coach in the NBA, Gentry has compiled a career record of 335-370 (.475).

In addition to his NBA experience, the Shelby, NC, native owns six years of college coaching experience, including a National Championship in 1988 as a member of Larry Brown’s staff at the University of Kansas.
