Everything you need to know about the newly appointed Hornets Head Coach
Lee was a four-year player at Bucknell University between 2002-2006, culminating in winning Player of the Year for the Patriot league in 2006. After a cup of coffee with the Spurs summer league team and pre-season in 2006, Lee carved out a multi-year playing career in overseas. Lee’s playing career took him from Israel to Belgium, before finishing up in the German league in 2010.
After the 2023 season, Lee moved left Milwaukee after the Bucks parted ways with mentor Mike Budenholzer. Lee remained a strong candidate on the head coaching market, receiving consideration from Phoenix, Detroit and Toronto in the 2023 off-season. Ultimately, Lee had to settle for another assistant role, but landed one of the top jobs on the market bolstering Joe Mazzulla’s staff as the Associate Head Coach for the Boston Celtics.
NBA Veteran Al Horford, who was coached by Lee in both Atlanta and Boston has been impressed by his impact on the Celtics. As a former point guard, he has focused on working with perimeter players in his role as an assistant. He could provide valuable mentorship for LaMelo Ball and Brandon Miller who could make up Charlotte’s starting back-court next season.
