Ollie

After firing Jacque Vaughn earlier in the day on Monday, they have decided to promote Ollie to head coach after he joined the Nets as an assistant this offseason. He had success as the head coach of UConn, and now he will get the opportunity to try and translate that into the NBA. He will coach in their first game without Vaughn on Thursday, which will provide managers with a better look at the rotations for the rest of the season.

Ollie is day-to-day. He’s expected to back up LeBron James this season.

Ollie and swingman Ira Newble failed to live up to the five-year, $15 million contracts they were given last summer, and the Cavs will try to upgrade over both. One of the two players could be attached to Dajuan Wagner and dealt.

Ollie was a member of the Pacers before signing with the Bucks prior to last season. Because he won’t be very expensive, there are a lot of teams that would like to sign Ollie as a backup.

It’s not the Sonics and the Blazers are believed to be out of the bidding. The Bucks could be the team, as they’d like someone rather inexpensive that they could pair with T.J. Ford.

He scored two points, but has no fantasy value.

Ollie returns as the Sixers’ No. 3 point guard.

Ollie will help back up Allen Iverson at point guard.

He has no fantasy value, as Allen Iverson will play 40 minutes a night at point guard.
