Reports: Willie Green to leave Suns for Pelicans Share this story Photo by Nathaniel S. Butler/NBAE via Getty Images You rarely get to know much about assistant coaches around the NBA, especially young ones, but Phoenix Suns assistant coach Willie Green is an exception. Monty Williams plucked Green off the Golden State Warriors coaching staff in the summer of 2019, where Green had been a part of Steve Kerr’s staff for the last one of their five straight NBA Finals appearances. Before that, Green had recently retired from his playing days. Now it appears that Green will take on the challenge of coaching the underachieving Pelicans with their stars Zion Williamson and Brandon Ingram and a host of other talent that had been expected to earn a playoff spot this year but fell well short of that goal.

Pelicans Expected to Hire Coach Willie Green

Pelicans Expected to Hire Coach Willie Green Share this story Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports Green is yet to be officially named to the role with the Suns currently ahead in the race for the 2020-21 championship. Green has earned respect as an assistant coach with the Warriors and now Suns. He played 12 seasons in the NBA as a second-round pick turned role player, including one year in New Orleans. The Pelicans definitely need a fresh voice. Green would provide that. But he’d also face immediate expectations. The Pelicans are trying to win quickly and appease Zion Williamson. This is a tricky job for anyone, especially a first-time NBA head coach. That said, there’s also a special opportunity with Williamson and a treasure trove of assets.
