The Oklahoma City Thunder and Billy Donovan have agreed to a contract that will make him the next Thunder coach.
The deal is for five years.
Donovan has been Thunder general manager Sam Presti's main target to replace Scott Brooks, who the Thunder dismissed last week.
" When we began the process of identifying the next head coach of the Thunder, we started with a vision and the identifiable qualities that we felt were necessary for our organization as well as the ever evolving role of the head coach in today's NBA," Presti said in a statement.
