ANALYSIS: Dave Joerger took a season off from coaching after being let go from Sacramento in 2019. Before then, Joerger got his first head coaching gig in the NBA with the Memphis Grizzlies.

Joerger has had some success as a head coach in the league, but has yet to lead a team deep into the playoffs. Learning from Doc Rivers on the sidelines would certainly bolster his resume and that could be a reason why Joerger would be willing to accept an assistant role at this stage in his coaching career.
