Nick Nurse has a new multi-year contract extension from the Toronto Raptors, the team announced today.
The 53-year-old coached the Raptors to the 2019 NBA championship and was the 2020 NBA coach of the year.
“Our confidence in Nick just continues to grow, and part of that comes from what we’ve experienced together. The past two seasons have been unlike any other in our team’s history – first, winning our championship, and then navigating a global pandemic and committing long-term to the fight against racism and for social justice,” Raptors president Masai Ujiri said in a statement issued by the team.
