The San Antonio Spurs have announced that Tim Duncan and Will Hardy will be added to Gregg Popovichâs bench as assistant coaches.
Duncan, a 1997 Wake Forest graduate, played 19 seasons with the Spurs before retiring in the summer of 2016.
âIt is only fitting, that after I served loyally for 19 years as Tim Duncanâs assistant, that he returns the favor,â said Spurs Head Coach Gregg Popovich.
Hardy first joined the Spurs as a basketball operations intern in 2010 after graduating from Williams College.
âWill Hardy is a talented, young basketball mind who has earned a great deal of respect from everyone in the organization thanks to his knowledge, spirit and personality,â said Popovich.
