Veteran bench boss Bob Nash, who has led the Toyama Grouses to sustained success since 2012, is returning to lead the bj-league club for the 2015-16 campaign.
The Grouses made the announcement on Monday, confirming the expected news.
As the bj-league enters its 11th season — its final campaign before the planned launch of the Japan Professional Basketball League in the fall of 2016 — Nash is now the longest-tenured coach in the Eastern Conference and one of the familiar faces in the league's coaching ranks.
