Nuggets Expected to Add Jared Dudley as Top Assistant Coach

News summary

Jared Dudley, a former Dallas Mavericks assistant and 14-year NBA veteran, is finalizing a deal to become the top assistant coach for the Denver Nuggets under newly appointed head coach David Adelman. Dudley joins a revamped Nuggets staff that also includes former NBA players JJ Barea and Rodney Billups, as Adelman was given autonomy to build his inaugural coaching team after taking over for Michael Malone. Dudley’s move is part of a broader exodus from Jason Kidd’s Mavericks staff, which has seen several key assistants depart this offseason, prompting Dallas to hire former NBA head coach Frank Vogel as an associate head coach. Dudley played for seven NBA teams before joining the Mavericks' staff in 2021 and was part of their run to the NBA Finals in 2024. The Nuggets, meanwhile, have also undergone significant front office changes and made several off-season roster moves as they aim to rebound from a disappointing 2024-25 campaign. In addition, Vlatko Cancar is not expected to return to the Nuggets and is in talks with EuroLeague club Olimpia Milano.
