Two former team-mates will join forces at the Wellington Saints.
Veteran Dillon Boucher will join the Saints as a player and assistant coach to Pero Cameron in next season's National Basketball League.
Boucher says working with Cameron was a major carrot.
"Pero is a very intense coach so he'll probably play the bad cop role and I'll probably play the good cop role knowing his techniques.
"It's more just trying to get a lot of the youngsters that are going to be involved with the team to get some good coaching experience."
