Byron Scott had said that he will be finalizing his coaching staff soon, there were rumors on who might be part off the staff but thanks to Mark Medina of the LA Daily News, Scott has named his staff:
Scott's staff will be Jim Eyen, Paul Pressey, Mark Madsen as assts; Larry Lewis & Thomas Scott as assts/player development. 1 position left

That one spot could go to Igor Kokoshov, who Scott confirmed he has interest in bringing on the staff:
Scott confirmed @ESPNSteinLine report about interest in Igor Kokoshov, but said it's not definitive he will be on.

This is some big news for Mark Madsen. Last season he was a player development coach for Mike D'Antoni. Jim Eyen has tons of NBA experience and Scott, Byron’s son, and Pressey have both been on Scott’s staff during his previous stops in New Orleans and Cleveland.
