(AP) -- The Golden State Warriors hired Jim Boylen and David Fizdale on Wednesday as assistant coaches for Eric Musselman's revamped staff. Boylen spent the past 11 seasons with the Houston Rockets, including seven as an assistant to Rudy Tomjanovich. Boylen was an assistant coach at Michigan State from 1987-92 following his playing career at Maine. Fizdale was an assistant last season at Fresno State. He spent the previous four seasons as an assistant at the University of San Diego, where both Fizdale and Musselman played. The new assistants replace Phil Hubbard, who took a job with the Washington Wizards, and Mark Osowski, who joined Paul Silas' staff in Cleveland. The Warriors went 38-44 in Musselman's first season as head coach, improving 17 games from the previous season. The team still missed the playoffs for the ninth straight year</div>
