Former NBA player transitions to coaching

The Washington Wizards have added Shabazz Napier as a coaching apprentice, league sources told HoopsHype. Former NBA player transitions to coaching The Washington Wizards have added Shabazz Napier as a coaching apprentice, league sources told HoopsHype.

Napier averaged 7.1 points in six NBA seasons with the Heat, Magic, Trail Blazers, Nets, Timberwolves, and Wizards. Beforehand, Napier was a two-time NCAA champion at UConn.

The apprentice program is a player development program rooted in developing aspiring coaches under Wizards head coach Brian Keefe.

This 100% makes complete sense for Napier. He has always been a very high IQ player. As fans, you can always take that for granted, but then you realize it how important it is when you see low basketball IQ players make low basketball IQ plays whether it's on your favorite team or another team.

Best of luck in your coaching endeavors, Shabazz.
 
Natural progression. He should have received a 'Coach's ring' for the 2014 Championship season. He was truly Ollie's assistant on the floor.

Bazz is a General, Leader and Lifter of Men.

Hmmmmm He may one day, in the distant future, depending on his success and development . . . . . . .

College HC is such a different beast. I can see a former player, especially a dog, just wanting to work with the guys in the gym and on Xs and Os rather than deal with recruiting. And I wouldn't blame them. I don't envy any college basketball coach
 
If I could meet one Husky, it just might be Shabazz. He was such a winner and leader. As much as I love Boat for his swagger and athleticism, Shabazz was THE guy for making plays that won games.
