As assistant coach:
Joe Prunty (born February 12, 1969) is an American assistant basketball coach for the Milwaukee Bucks of the National Basketball Association and was the head coach of the Great Britain men's national basketball team from June 2013 until September 2017.
Prunty was born in Sunnyvale, California and graduated from Fremont High School. He played college basketball at De Anza College in Cupertino, California before going on to earn a bachelor's degree in Speech Communications from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo. He began his coaching career in 1992 in San Diego, California, coaching at University of San Diego High School and St. Augustine High School. During his time as a high school coach, Los Angeles Lakers head coach Luke Walton and former Chicago Cubs pitcher Mark Prior were among his players.
While coaching at the high school level, former University of San Diego head coach Hank Egan informed Prunty of a possible opening in the San Antonio Spurs organization. Based on this tip, Prunty joined the coaching staff of the Spurs as an assistant video coordinator. He left briefly in April 1997 to become an assistant coach at the University of San Diego but returned to the Spurs for the 1997-1998 season, eventually being promoted to assistant coach in 2000. During his time with the Spurs, the team won championships in 1999, 2003, and 2005.
