Sacramento replaced coach Brown.
ESPN reported on the 28th (Korea Standard Time) that the Sacramento Kings replaced head coach Mike Brown.
In his first year at Sacramento in 2022, Brown received tremendous acclaim. He took Sacramento to the playoffs for the first time in 17 years, becoming the first ever winner of the unanimous coaching award.
Sacramento seems to have ended its dark days as it has hot attack capability under Brown and has the core of De'Aaron Pax and Domantas Sabonis. However, it has shown signs of regression in the two seasons that followed.
Sacramento, which failed to advance to the playoffs last season due to fierce competition in the Western Conference, has ambitiously stepped up efforts to strengthen its capabilities by recruiting Derma DeRozan ahead of this season. The team has been mentioned as a dark horse enough.
However, Sacramento's performance in this season is not as expected. It is ranking 12th in the Western Conference with 13 wins and 18 losses, and has lost five consecutive games recently. It is not easy to solve the problem of coexistence between DeRozan, a transfer player, and DeAaron Parks, a backcourt ace.
Against this backdrop, the Sacramento team finally pulled its sword out. After losing by one point at the game against Detroit on Monday, he lost five consecutive games, and replaced coach Brown.
The NBA was cool-headed. Brown reportedly had a one-on-one meeting with the coaches and had a one-on-one meeting with the Parks after finishing team practice an hour before the news of his dismissal was made public by the club.
"Sacramento fired coach Mike Braun just before he boarded the flight to Los Angeles. He was interviewed by the media 15 minutes ago," ABC 10's Matt George said.
