Charlotte Hornets’ assistant coach and NBA legend, Patrick Ewing, has been linked to the vacant head coaching opportunity with the Sacramento Kings. The Kings have recently fired their head coach and will be looking for a replacement this off-season.
George Karl was fired by the Sacramento Kings a day after the NBA season ended. The Kings have gone through five different coaches within the past five seasons. Sacramento isn’t necessarily a place where first time head coaches would like to go. Their organization is a mess.
Patrick Ewing has been the Charlotte Hornets assistant coach for the past three seasons under Steve Clifford but he has never been a head coach in the league before.
