New Orleans Names Jamahl Mosley Head Coach
18 May
Summary
- Jamahl Mosley has been hired by the Pelicans on a five-year contract.
- New Orleans dismissed previous coach Willie Green in November.
- Mosley previously served five seasons with the Orlando Magic.
Jamahl Mosley has been appointed as the new head coach of the New Orleans Pelicans. League sources confirmed that Mosley has agreed to a five-year contract with the team.
This decision follows the Pelicans' dismissal of their previous head coach, Willie Green, in November. Green was let go after the team's challenging start to the season, which saw them with a 2-10 record. Associate head coach James Borrego then stepped in as the interim head coach for the remainder of the season, which concluded with the Pelicans at 26-56.
Mosley's prior coaching experience includes five seasons with the Orlando Magic. His departure from the Magic occurred earlier this month, shortly after their first-round playoff defeat.
