I think the allure is that he will get a more prominent role. My recollection is that he was not an "OTB" assistant in 23-24. Being the Lead Assistant (Sweeney) or one of the next two Bench Assistants is how your name gets mentioned for the HC jobs in the future. Not sure exactly how many assistants the Mavs carry on the bench, but they have several second row assistants and my recollection is that is where he has been the last two seasons. IIRC he is in line to become one the top 3 AC's in Dallas this year.
