While many teams have filled out their staffs for the upcoming season, there’s reportedly mutual interest between Van Gundy and the Washington Wizards for an assistant job next season, Mannix adds.

I would love this simply because his stunned expressions on the bench would be incredible.

Seems like a great add, if not over qualified. WUJ going to need to watch over his shoulders.

Yes, please. Let’s up our player development in any way we can.

Please do this. I’d be somewhat surprised if they did though…it seems like it’d just be a matter of time for the fire Wes and promote JVG.

He has a solid record as a head coach, he’s a only missed the playoffs once in a season where he coaches more than 50 games (made playoffs 9/10 times) and has an overall 57% win percentage.

i like that JVG doesnt mince his words. players have been doing whatever they want in recent years. they need to shape up or be shipped out
waskittenman
Oh my gooood could you imagine he’s the assistant coach interview we get going into the third quarter lol
BayTerp
If this happens it’s only a matter of time before he becomes head coach

Surprising! I don’t know if it should be JVG but I am hoping they add some experience and talent at the assistant level. It wasn’t a super distinguished or experienced coaching staff already and lost atleast 2 guys.
stache_twista
eh, pass. He’s 61 and hasn’t coached since 2007. I’d like to see the Wiz “call up” staff from the Go Go. And in general start using the G League as a coaching pipeline.

If Rihanna lived in DC Jeff would be begging to coach.

“Back in my day, the kids wouldn’t have given up on Johnny Davis as fast as they have here in DC. It’s really a shame what this microwave society has turned us into and I blame social media honestly.”

Yes please

WUJ feeling like Ron Rivera rn. Living on borrowed time.

Would be a great addition and potential in waiting hire?
noodeloodel
I’d rather he just replace Drew Gooden lol.

If he usurps WUJ 👀

Every team should be interested

Love JVG, but I thought the Wiz are tanking and he’s not going to want to do that, “How am I gonna ‘build culture’ and then tank games?”.
Although I’m curious on how he coached the National Team. Both on the Knicks and the Rockets he was this hard-D slow the pace down guy (due to the roster too) and I’m curious to know if he can be flexible in playing styles.

Didn’t Rachel Nichols just get a show on Ted’s new network? Maybe JVG is tryna dip his toe back into coaching, and still have a new broadcasting gig lined up if he doesn’t like it.
