The Sacramento Kings fired Mike Brown after a poor start to the 2024-25 season. While fans are still soaking up the news, former LA Lakers guard Lou Williams revealed a shocking revelation about the sack on "Run It Back."
Williams, in an episode of the show posted on X on Monday, claimed that the former NBA Coach of the Year was let go due to issues with player roles. He specifically claimed that Brown planned to bring six-time NBA All-Star DeMar DeRozan from the bench.
"I was even hearing whispers that there was a situation where he might have asked, you know, or suggested that even DeMar DeRozan come off the bench, and those things proved to be severe missteps in an already challenging season," Williams said. "Where it put the front office in a position where they had to side with either the All-Star talent they had or depart ways with their former Coach of the Year who had a brand-new three-year extension."
