Alvin Gentry and the New Orelans Pelicans have agreed upon a deal for him to become their next head coach. 

Gentry will assume his duties with the Pelicans after the Finals as he is currently assistant coach of the Golden State Warriors. 

Gentry replaces Monty Williams as head coach. 

Gentry has developed a reputation as one of the league' better coaches on offense. The Pelicans were a better team on offense than defense during the 14-15 season, but many believed the talent of Anthony Davis on offense was not being fully maximalized.
