SALT LAKE CITY (AP) - Utah is set to hire Michigan State assistant Jim Boylen.
A person close to Boylen confirmed the move to The Associated Press on Monday, requesting anonymity because the hiring wasn't expected to be announced until 3 p.m. MDT Tuesday. Utah officials wouldn't confirm the hiring ahead of the news conference.
It will be the first head coaching job for Boylen, who has been an assistant to Michigan State coach Tom Izzo the past two seasons after 13 years as an NBA assistant — including 11 years with the Houston Rockets and stints with Golden State and Milwaukee.
