Across two seasons, Mike Brown led the Sacramento Kings to 107 regular season wins out of 195 games. But with the team stumbling to a 13-18 record to open their 2024-2025 campaign, the Kings front office has decided to let go of Brown, a two-time NBA Coach of the Year.
While assistant coach Doug Christie has been named interim coach, the Kings will have to decide sooner rather than later on Brown's long-term replacement. There are multiple contenders out there for the role of Sacramento head coach, each with a distinct track record.

Replacing a head coach 31 games into the season causes a ripple effect of adjustments that could further derail a team. The Kings, then, could be doing some damage control by hiring a man with 13 seasons' worth of head coaching experience in the league.
