Alvin Gentry has been an NBA head coach in the past, and has decades of overall league coaching experience. Most recently, he was part of last year's championship team as the lead offensive assistant under Steve Kerr with the Golden State Warriors.

Gentry is far from a rookie head coach, but is entering his first season on the job with the New Orleans Pelicans. He may not have the toughest job in the league among next season's first-year head coaches, but he may have one of the most challenging, as described by NBA.com's Sekou Smith.
