Vitaly Potapenko, Walter McCarty and Wesley Person - Last time we checked in Vitaly Potapenko, he was an assistant coach at the D-League's Fort Wayne Mad Ants. Last time we checked in on Walter McCarty, he was an assistant coach for Rick Pitino at Louisville. Both are now assistants at the Indiana Pacers. And both survived when Jim O'Brien got fired.
Not so lucky was Wesley Person. After only one season as head coach at Enterprise-Ozark community college, Person was fired after going 8-21. He now owns a bowling alley and skate rink in Alabama called "Sharpshooter."

Walter McCarty's last stint in the NBA came with the 2005-06 Clippers, where he didn't do much. Since then, he has worked his way up through the coaching ranks, and he's now an assistant coach to dirty sexpest and restaurant buggery fanatic Rick Pitino at Louisville. (Before that whole nailing-someone-that-wasn't-his-wife-over-a-restaurant-table story broke, I used to instinctively think of Al Pacino in 'People I Know' when I saw Rick Pitino. But not now. He has only himself to blame for that.)
