Belmont basketball has hired the school's all-time leading scorer, Evan Bradds, to be the coach of the Bruins, a source told The Tennessean on March 18.
The source requested anonymity because no official announcement has been made.
Bradds is an assistant at Duke, 31, where he's been since May 2025.
He replaces Casey Alexander, who was hired by Kansas State on March 13.
An official announcement is expected by the end of the week, according to the source.
Along with being Belmont's all-time NCAA Division I scorer with 1,921 points, Bradds ranks sixth in Division I history in career field goal percentage at .667.
Bradds was a two-time Ohio Valley Conference Player of the Year.
He began his coaching career with the Boston Celtics organization and spent four years there. He started as an assistant coach and video coordinator for the Maine Red Claws, Boston's NBA G League affiliate, before being promoted to the Celtics' player enhancement staff under coaches Brad Stevens and Ime Udoka.
He was later hired as an assistant coach with the Utah Jazz for coach Will Hardy.
