Ollie left Overtime Elite after two years of running the up-and-coming NBA feeder program.
The 50-year-old, who coached six seasons at UConn and guided them to the 2014 NCAA championship, had interviewed twice for the Pistons head coaching job that eventually went to Monty Williams.
Ollie’s ability to develop and lead are well-known. He has helped mold the Thompson twins — Amen and Ausar Thompson — into lottery picks expected to both go in the top 10 later this month, which would make them the highest-drafted set of twins in NBA history.
