In 2020, Tamara Moore took over the Mesabi Range men’s basketball program, becoming the first female black head coach of a men’s collegiate basketball program.
On Wednesday, Moore announced that she’d be stepping back from Mesabi Range basketball for good, in turn accepting a new position.
Moore will become an NBA scout for the Dallas Mavericks for the upcoming 2024-2025 season.
Moore served as an assistant coach for the Boston Celtics summer league team in 2022, and was a professional in her own right, playing in the NBA and Europe.
