Blazers opt to not bring back two Chauncey Billups assistants

The Portland Trail Blazers will not renew the contracts for assistant coaches Scott Brooks and Rodney Billups, per Aaron Fentress of the Oregonian. The change comes on the heels of assistant Steve Hetzel departing the Blazers on April 22 to join the Brooklyn Nets' coaching staff following three seasons in Portland. Brooks spent three seasons as Blazers head coach Chauncey Billups' top assistant.
