'I'm ready for that': Why one early 2000s Kings star wants to coach at the next level

A retired 14-year NBA veteran, Mike Bibby is most fondly remembered for his eight-year stretch with the Kings in the 2000s.

Now, though, the 39-year-old former NCAA champion has his heart set on a coaching gig at either college or the NBA level.

Bibby told basketball blog HoopsHype this week that he hopes he can make that jump someday soon. He's been coaching high school and Amateur Athletic Union teams since before his 2012 retirement from the NBA.

"I’d be dealing with guys who are a bit older, but I know what it takes," Bibby told HoopsHype.
