Sep 29, 2011 8:17 PM

Paul Mokeski will be named head coach of the Reno Bighorns of the D-League.

"I would love the opportunity to be a head coach in the DLeague and am hoping to get interviews with a few teams this summer," Mokeski told Schroeder earlier in the search process. "I would like the chance to continue to teach players and help them accomplish their dream of playing in the NBA."

Mokeski played 12 seasons in the NBA and has been an assistant in both the NBA and D-League.

Eric Musselman left the Bighorns to become head coach of the D-Fenders.
