I guess it doesn’t matter that Dave Joerger coached the Kings to their best season in over a decade, as according to multiple reports Sacramento general manager Vlade Divac will fire Joerger today.

The Kings already have multiple targets in mind to replace Joerger as head coach, including current Los Angeles Lakers head coach Luke Walton.

In a matter of hours, Divac received a contract extension and Joerger, along with assistant general manager Brandon Williams, are being fired. Welcome to the NBA offseason.
