The Wildcast (Bonus): Joseph Blair eager to join Sixers' coaching staff, work with Joel Embiid
Former Arizona Wildcats standout Joseph Blair will join the Philadelphia 76ers' coaching staff for the 2019-20 season. After winning a G League championship as a first-year head coach with the Rio Grande Valley Vipers, Blair joins the NBA ranks as an assistant and is the latest ex-Wildcat to coach in the association. Blair joined the Star's Justin Spears on ESPN Tucson 104.9-FM earlier this week to talk about his new gig.
