Nori Family Double Duty

Micah Nori, NBA veteran and 17-year assistant coach, makes his head coaching debut with the Portland Trail Blazers — a bold leap after guiding the Timberwolves through their 2024 Western Conference Finals run. Just months after the Wolves’ playoff exit and his son Dante’s first-round MLB draft, Micah steps into a new era, inheriting a Blazers roster led by Damian Lillard and young talent like Deni Avdija. Meanwhile, Dante, already making headlines with Italy in the World Baseball Classic and a nod from Alex Rodriguez, is thriving in the minors. The father-son duo also share a sweet, baseball-card-collecting bond — a personal touch that underscores their unique journey. This is a family story unfolding on two major stages, with both Noris chasing greatness in their own arenas. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
