Kings' Mike Brown named NBA's coach of the year

Sacramento Kings coach Mike Brown made it two awards in as many days for the Kings franchise as he cruised being a unanimous selection for the NBA's Coach of the Year Award, which was announced on TNT Wednesday night.

"These honors don't come around often, so you're very appreciative of them," Brown said during an interview on TNT's "Inside The NBA" after being named the winner of the award.

Brown, who led Sacramento to its first playoff berth since 2006 this season in his first year leading the Kings, follows De'Aaron Fox, who won the NBA's inaugural Jerry West Clutch Player of the Year award Tuesday.
