Kenny Anderson is one of my favorite college players of all-time and Hooped Up is pulling for him to land a job with the Knicks. Hopefully, he can talk some sense into Marbury and Robinson.
The affable agent, Billy Diamond, emailed a few of us New York writers he knows to suggest his guy, Kenny Anderson, would be a good candidate to join the Knicks in some capacity. Diamond, whose also Charles Oakley’s agent, writes, in part, “Kenny is trying to get into the NBA as either an Assistant Coach or Director of Player Development. He has been a Mentor to Stephon Marbury since high school. Who better to be a mentor than Kenny who played over a decade in the league in the NYC area. Two months ago, Kenny attended an assistant coaches seminar put on by the NBA and will be coaching/teaching in the Orlando Pre-Draft Camp later this month. Two years ago he was a volunteer assistant coach at St. Thomas Aquinas in Ft. Lauderdale, near where he lives and this past season he was the head coach of the Atlanta Krunk of the CBA and coaches Steph’s brother Zach.”
