Ollie spent the past two years as head of coaching and player development for the Overtime Elite program in Atlanta that has become a premier feeder program for professional basketball. Ollie 將加入重組後的籃網隊教練團，這也是 Jacque Vaughn 擔任籃網隊主教練的第一 個完整賽季。Ollie 在過去兩年間，於作為職業籃球首要連接計劃的亞特蘭大 Overtime Elite 中，負責培訓和球員發展的工作。（目前已經離開） After going undrafted out of UConn, Ollie spent 13 seasons in the NBA and built a reputation as a trusted leader and teammate. 雖然離開康涅狄格大學後成為落選秀，Ollie 在 NBA 效力了十三個賽季，並在場上建立 了信譽。 In September, Ollie and UConn agreed on a settlement of $3.9 million in a potential federal race discrimination suit that he had considered against UConn. That payout included claimed reputational damages and attorney's fees to end what had been a lengthy legal battle between UConn and Ollie since his firing in 2018 for allegedly violating NCAA rules. 在去年九月，Ollie 和康涅狄格大學已就潛在的種族歧視訴訟案，達成了價值三百九十萬 美元的和解協議。Ollie 收到的賠償包含損害賠償和律師費，以結束自從他於二零一八年 因為違反 NCAA 的規則而被解雇以來，漫長的法律抗爭。 短評： 另據《紐約郵報》報導，他是成功讓 Amen 和 Ausar Thompson 兩兄弟，在今年的選秀中 進入前十名之內的教練；同時得分後衛Robert Dillingham 也將是未來的潛在新秀。 自從五月初解雇多位助理教練以來，目前籃網隊正經歷教練團重組的過程，不知會否是一 開始的好選擇呢？ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 180.74.219.203 (馬來西亞) ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/NBA/M.1685836958.A.FEF.html
