RENO, Nev. -- Recently hired University of Nevada head men's basketball coach Eric Musselman has selected Doug Stewart to join his Wolf Pack coaching staff.  Most recently Stewart was an assistant coach with Philadelphia 76ers NBA Development League team, the Delaware 87ers.

 "We are thrilled with the wealth of college experience Doug brings to the Wolf Pack family," Musselman said.  "His experience as a former associate head coach in the Pac-12 and as a recruiting coordinator fits perfectly with the culture we want to establish.  He has great energy and passion for the game.  Spending this past season as a member of the Philadelphia 76ers organization as an assistant with the Delaware 87ers in the NBA Development League adds another outstanding part to his impressive coaching resume."  

"It is an honor to be a part of The University of Nevada Wolf Pack family and the renowned men's basketball program,' Stewart said.  "I look forward to working hand in hand with Coach Musselman and returning the program to lofty heights."

Prior to working in professional basketball, Stewart was the associate head coach at Oregon State University from 2008-14 and served as interim head coach in 2014.  While at OSU he served as the recruiting coordinator and helped the Beavers win the 2009 CBI championship.

"Doug Stewart is first, a great person, and second a very smart basketball coach who is always thinking the game. He has a great feel for the game offensively, and defensively and knows how to convey his thoughts. Player development comes natural for Coach Stewart because of the way he's able to connect and communicate with players - players love to work with him."
