Florida State men's basketball coach Luke Loucks hired Atlanta guard Terance Mann as the assistant general manager on Thursday afternoon.
This new role is a recent trend for college basketball, allowing active NBA players to serve as advisors for their former college teams.
Steph Curry of the Golden State Warriors was hired by his former team, Davidson, and Trae Young, Mann's teammate, by Oklahoma for the same position.

Mann played three seasons (2016-19) at FSU, where he is the third player in school history to put up 1,200 points, 600 rebounds, 200 assists, and 100 steals.
The Los Angeles Clippers selected Mann in the second round of the 2019 NBA Draft. After six years with the franchise, he was traded to the Atlanta Hawks earlier this year.
