Knicks expected to begin interviewing coaching candidates

With the NBA set to send 22 teams to Orlando for the resumption of the suspended season, the Knicks are expected to begin interviewing candidates for their head coaching job.

There has been a list of candidates expected to be the favorites for the job, with Tom Thibodeau considered the frontrunner. But it is not a given and Knicks president Leon Rose is, according to a league source, conducting a thorough search that could include as many as 10 candidates.

While Thibodeau, Kenny Atkinson, Mike Miller and Mike Woodson may head up the list of names with experience and an opportunity, there are a number of assistants who could also join the list.
