(June 14, 2007) -- The Toronto Raptors announced Thursday that assistant coaches Alex English and Jay Triano will return to the staff for the 2007-08 season. Mike Evans, a scout with the Raptors the past three seasons, is joining head coach Sam Mitchell’s staff as well. The team also announced that Dave Hopla will return as a basketball development consultant.
“This is an experienced staff that will continue to work effectively in developing our players and help a great deal with game preparation,” said Mitchell. “We’ll have the benefits of three returning members from last year’s staff who know our players, plus the addition in Mike of someone who’s been a head coach in this league and also a successful playing career. He knows our organization since he’s been a scout with us for three years.”
...
“Mike is a natural choice for a coaching position here in Toronto because he has an insider’s knowledge of the organization,” said Bryan Colangelo, Raptors president and general manager. “Mike’s vast NBA experience both as a player and bench coach should compliment our group quite well. Having spent considerable time with Mike this past year, I came away very impressed with his basketball acumen and insight.”
