John Stockton: Basketball Coach

In his time with the NBA, John Stockton was often referred to as one half of the sport’s most prolific duo’s alongside Karl Malone. Stockton was revered for always being an asset, rather than scoring the basket for himself, which often meant he was overshadowed by other players. He wasn’t all too phased, as it turns out. Leaving his playing days behind in 2003, he decided that he could be even more useful to the game as a coach. When an assistant coach position opened up at Montana State University for their women’s team, he was quick to jump at the opportunity and has coached a bunch of youth teams ever since, while his focus has moved into business.
