Chris Chambers/Getty Images(CHARLOTTE, N.C.) — The Charlotte Bobcats introduced St. John’s assistant Mike Dunlap as their new head coach Wednesday. He will take over a team that went a dismal 7-59 last season under Paul Silas.
“Mike Dunlap embodies the characteristics we were seeking in a head coach,” said Bobcats President of Basketball Operations Rod Higgins. “He is renowned in basketball circles as a teacher, developer of talent, communicator and collaborator. His energy and work ethic are endless, and we are excited to have him in charge of our team.”
Dunlap spent two seasons (2006-08) as an assistant head coach in Denver.
