Coaching career


Daigneault began his coaching career as a student manager at UConn from 2003 to 2007 under Jim Calhoun. After earning his bachelor's degree in education, Daigneault initially intended to go for a master's degree, but was urged by Calhoun and associate head coach George Blaney to pursue an assistant coaching role at Holy Cross and offered strong recommendations.[1]

Daigneault was an assistant coach of the Florida Gators from 2010 to 2014 and was head coach of the NBA G League's Oklahoma City Blue, which is affiliated with the Oklahoma City Thunder of the NBA, from 2014 to 2019. During the 2019–20 NBA season, Daigneault joined the Thunder as an assistant, reuniting him with head coach Billy Donovan, who was the Gators' coach, while Daigneault served as an assistant.[2] On November 11, 2020, the Thunder promoted Daigneault to head coach.[3]
