Nuggets hire Malone
MIKE Malone, the former coach of the Sacramento Kings, has been hired as the new coach of the Denver Nuggets, the National Basketball Association club announced on Monday.
The Kings went 39-67 under Malone in just over a season with the team. Sacramento fired Malone after an 11-13 start last season, the team going 2-7 after standout DeMarcus Cousins suffered a viral infection. “I’m thrilled to have been chosen as the next leader for the Denver Nuggets,” Malone said. “I can’t wait to get started.” Malone had been an assistant with the New York Knicks, the Cleveland Cavaliers as well as New Orleans and Golden State. Melvin Hunt had completed the season guiding the Nuggets after Bryan Shaw was fired on March 3. The Nuggets went 30-52 in 2014-15, 10-13 under Hunt.
