Former Phoenix Suns coach Alvin Gentry will join Doc Rivers’ new staff with the Los Angeles Clippers as an associate head coach, according to a source.

Gentry was sought by Rivers because of his institutional knowledge of the franchise, for which he was a head coach from 2001 to 2003, and his reputation as an offensive-minded coach who helped get the best out of Amar’e Stoudemire in Phoenix. Gentry will be asked to do similar work in L.A. with young Clippers forward Blake Griffin.
