Report: Tom Thibodeau is candidate for Knicks coach job, assessing options
Tom Thibodeau certainly seems as though he may have options this offseason if he wants to return to the NBA head coaching ranks.
Thibodeau is “canvassing the league” and asking people which potential coaching job would be best suited to him, according to Stefan Bondy of the New York Daily News. The New York Knicks and Brooklyn Nets will be hiring new coaches this offseason, and the Houston Rockets are expected to as well.
Thibodeau will be considered for the Knicks job, according to Bondy. Interim coach Mike Miller will also be a candidate.
The coaching market will develop whenever the season ends, which is uncertain at this point. Thibodeau is certainly looking, but he’s made it clear he doesn’t feel like he absolutely has to take the first offer that comes his way.
