Herb Brown, a longtime fixture in the NBA and global basketball, has been tabbed for special recognition by the National Association of Basketball Coaches.
In April, Brown, who served as an adviser coach for Japan's FIBA Asia Championship for Women's title-winning team last fall, will receive the NABC's International Committee Lifetime Achievement Award during the organization's annual convention. The spring event will be held in conjunction with the NCAA Men's Final Four at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
The 77-year-old Brown is the older brother of Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame coach Larry Brown, who's currently the sideline supervisor at Southern Methodist University.
