Daily News | After pulling out of Milwaukee Bucks job, Sixers coaching candidate Nick Nurse sorting through options
The former Toronto Raptors head coach is a prime candidate for the 76ers and Phoenix Suns vacant head-coaching gigs.
It’s no secret that Nurse has a great relationship with Sixers president of basketball operations Daryl Morey. As the Houston Rockets general manager, Morey hired Nurse before the 2011-12 season to coach the Rio Grande Valley Vipers, the Rockets’ NBA G League affiliate. But Nurse is best known in the NBA for leading the Raptors to the 2019 NBA title in his first year as an NBA head coach and having three postseason appearances. He was the 2020 NBA coach of the year. He also won two British Basketball League titles before coaching in the NBA.
Rivers received a lot of the blame for the Sixers’ 112-88 Game 7 loss to the Boston Celtics on May 14 in the Eastern Conference semifinals at TD Garden.
