The Nuggets are hiring Jared Dudley as their top assistant coach on Adelman’s inaugural staff, a league source told The Denver Post. Dudley, who turns 40 this month, met with the Nuggets in Denver this week after they secured permission to interview him from the Dallas Mavericks, where he has coached since 2021.

The coaching carousel of the Dallas Mavericks continues to spin, and it has been spinning fast. Seemingly, no team has lost more assistant coaches this offseason than the Mavs, who were already up to five coaches departing.

On Thursday, Shams Charania reported that the Denver Nuggets are hiring Jared Dudley to become the top assistant coach under David Adelman. Dudley’s move to Denver has been in the works over the past few days, and after plenty of smoke, Dudley is officially making the move.
