Former Nets guard could join Arizona’s coaching staff

A recent report indicates Jason Terry is interested in getting into the coaching game at the college level.

Jason Terry’s time with the Brooklyn Nets was brief, to say the least. He logged 35 games in a Nets uniform after he was sent to Brooklyn by the Boston Celtics, along with Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce in the summer of 2013.

Then, while dealing with a knee injury, Terry was traded to the Sacramento Kings for Reggie Evans and Marcus Thornton in the middle of the 2013-14 season.

Terry didn’t play in one game for the Kings, then went on to play for the Houston Rockets for two seasons, followed by two years in Milwaukee. He then retired after 2017-18.

Terry isn’t coming out of retirement to play at the age of 42, but he is trying to get back in the game. According to Jeff Goodman of Stadium, Terry “has emerged as the leading candidate to join Sean Miller’s staff as an assistant” at Arizona.

Terry played at Arizona for four years, helping the Wildcats win the NCAA National Championship in 1997.
