Kings Fire 2023 Coach of the Year Mike Brown Amid 13-18 Start
Dec 27, 2024, 09:45 PM
The Sacramento Kings have fired head coach Mike Brown after a 13-18 start to the season, sources confirm. The decision comes amid a five-game losing streak and the team losing an NBA-high 13 clutch time games this season. Brown was dismissed shortly after leading a team practice and addressing the media, where he had interactions with star player De'Aaron Fox. Reports indicate that Brown appeared to call out Fox following the team's recent loss to the Pistons, and Fox had spoken to the team taking accountability. Brown, who was named NBA Coach of the Year in 2023 after leading the Kings to the playoffs and ending a 17-year postseason drought, had signed a multi-year contract extension through the 2026-2027 season earlier this year. The Kings are currently 12th in the Western Conference standings, and the move raises questions about the team's direction and stability.
