Report: Nuggets add former sharpshooter Price to coaching staff
The Denver Nuggets have reportedly added former Cleveland Cavaliers sharpshooter Mark Price to their coaching staff, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
Price will operate as a shooting instructor as part of his duties with the Nuggets, similar to his role as an assistant with the Charlotte Hornets between 2013 to 2015.
Denver finished seventh in 3-point shooting (37.1 percent) and 10th in field goal percentage (47.0) last season, but still failed to make the postseason.
The four-time All-Star was one of the early pioneers of efficient point guard play, averaging 15.2 points and 6.7 assists while shooting 47.2 percent from the field, 40.2 percent on 3-pointers, and 90.4 percent from the free throw line in his 12 year career.
Price was a four-time All-NBA player and a four-time All-Star during his nine years in Cleveland.
