Randy Livingston to coach Idaho Stampede

The only player to have his jersey retired and a day named in his honor in the history of the Idaho Stampede franchise is returning to the team just three seasons later.

Randy Livingston is returning not as a player, however, or even the assistant coach as he was under Bryan Gates during the 2008-09 season, but as the eighth head coach in the history of the D-League's Idaho Stampede.

Livingston, who served as an assistant coach under Austin Ainge with the Maine Red Claws this past season, retired as a player after helping lead the Stampede to the 2008 NBA D-League Championship following a five-year career with the team. He currently holds the records for all-time assists (1,517), points scored (2,428) and games played (163) for Idaho over the course of his career.
