The Sacramento Kings are set to lose one of their top assistant coaches, Igor Kokoskov.

The Sacramento Kings are gearing up for the NBA’s return in Orlando later this month, but they’ll now also be forced to prepare for the loss of top assistant coach, Igor Kokoskov.

As first reported by Marc Stein of the NY Times, Kokoskov is set to return to Europe to take over as the head coach of Turkish basketball powerhouse, Fenerbahçe.

Fenerbahçe is Turkey’s premier basketball team and one of the best teams in the EuroLeague.
