Denver Nuggets Interview Former Kings Head Coach Michael Malone
Jayne Kamin-Oncea-USA TODAY SportsESPN’s Marc Stein reported yesterday that the Denver Nuggets "formally met" with Michael Malone about their head coaching vacancy this week. Malone joins a list of candidates for the Nuggets job that includes Melvin Hunt and Mike D’Antoni.
I don’t think I’m alone in rooting for Malone to find a head coaching position somewhere. He was a solid-at-worst coach for a year and some change in Sacramento, and after his unceremonious firing (and the subsequent class he handled it with), he’ll always have a fan in me.
He also has a fan in fellow former King Isaiah Thomas, who is very publicly advocating for Malone’s coaching ability.
