New York Knicks coaching candidate Tom Thibodeau impressed former NBA player Nate Robinson.

As Tom Thibodeau appears to be the leader in the clubhouse for the New York Knicks full-time head coaching position, several NBA coaches have come out in support of the former Timberwolves bench chief. And some of his ex-players respect his hustle, too. Former Knick Nate Robinson called Thibs one of his favorite coaches in a recent interview with Brandon “Scoop B” Robinson.

“To be honest, Coach Thibs is one of the dopest coaches I’ve ever played for,” Nate Robinson told Scoop on an Instagram Live interview last week.
