While the Lakers have still not appointed their coach for next season, the coaches hired since the end of the season are getting ahead to complete their staff. In Brooklyn, Jordi Fernandez has just recorded two additional recruits for its staff.
According to Hoopshypethese are Connor Griffin and Deividas Dulkys, two assistants he worked with in Denver and Sacramento respectively.
They join Adam Caporn, Ryan Forehan-Kelly and Corey Vinson who Jordi Fernandez decided to keep, but also Steve Hetzel and Juwan Howard, recruited in recent weeks. It is Steve Hetzel who will be the first assistant at the start of the school year. The two technicians have known each other for ten years, and their time with the Cavaliers.
Since 2021, Connor Griffin took care of the video for Mike Malone at the Nuggets, and he met Jordi Fernandez there, before the latter joined Mike Brown Sacramento. Since this year, Connor Griffin had joined the technical staff, and he worked a lot with Jamal Murray.
As for Deividas Dulkys, he has been in charge of player “development” for the Kings since the summer of 2022. 2022 is precisely the year of Fernandez’s arrival at the Kings to be Mike Brown’s right-hand man.
