Kevin Braswell is the new head coach of New Zealand Breakers
He signed a 2+1 deal
The NZ Breakers have appointed, former point guard Kevin Braswell as the new Head coach on a 3-year deal (2 plus an option) at the four-time Championship winning club.
It’s a full circle for Braswell, the American arrived at the Breakers in 2010 and helped spur the club on a remarkable end of season run that all but earned them a playoff spot, before returning to help the club to their first NBL title the following season and being named NBL Best Sixth Man.
The Baltimore native has since gone on a decorated run as a player and coach in the NZ NBL, firstly with the Southland Sharks (2010 – 15) and then Wellington, coaching the Saints to back to back titles in 2016 and 2017.
SKYCITY Breakers CEO Matt Walsh is excited about bringing Braswell back into the fold.
