NBA career edit

Augmon was drafted by the Atlanta Hawks with the ninth pick of the 1991 NBA draft. He was the first player in the top ten draft picks to work out a deal, a 5-year contract worth between 6.5 and 7 million dollars.[6] On January 3, 1995, Augmon scored a career-high 36 points during a 103–98 Hawks loss to the Trail Blazers.[7] In total, Augmon played for the Hawks, the Detroit Pistons, the Portland Trail Blazers, the Charlotte Hornets, the New Orleans Hornets, and the Orlando Magic. He holds a scoring average of 8.0 points per game throughout his career.

The Magic decided not to re-sign Augmon for the 2006–07 NBA season, making him an unrestricted free agent. On October 3, 2007, the Denver Nuggets announced the signing of the 15-year veteran,[8] but he was later waived on the 24th.[9] One month and three days later, Denver re-hired Augmon, this time as a player development coach.[10]

Post-playing career edit

Augmon is from Pasadena, CA and is the president of a bike club.[11] In May 2011, he left the Denver Nuggets to join the staff of former Rebels teammate Dave Rice as an assistant coach for UNLV.[2] In Sept 2016, he was named an assistant coach for the Milwaukee Bucks.[12]

Augmon served as the head coach for Jeonju KCC Egis of the Korean Basketball League during the 2018–19 season leading the team to the KBL Semi-Finals and a 32–30 record.[13]
