Marc Iavaroni has been hired by the Clippers as an assistant coach, general manager Neil Olshey confirmed Saturday.

"I'm excited about the opportunity," Iavaroni said while watching the Clippers play San Antonio on Saturday in the Las Vegas summer league. "They're young and they're going to be hungry. They want to learn how to win. It'll be interesting and fun to see them grow along with Baron [Davis] and Chris [Kaman]."
