USA Today, Reid Cherner

Former NBA star Kenny Anderson is the new basketball coach at The Davie (Fla.) David Posnack Jewish Day School.

Anderson, an All-American at Georgia Tech, averaged 12.6 points and 6.1 assists in 14 NBA seasons.

"We're tickled pink," Posnack athletic director Mitch Evron said. "We're ecstatic about getting a name like that in here to jump-start our basketball program. We're all going to learn from him. He's doing it for the right reasons. Whoever is advising him said to start small, and we're certainly happy he started small with us."

Anderson, 40, has coached in the CBA but this is his first high school coaching job. Posnack was 10-11 last year. (Thanks to Dime Magazine for the tip)
