Former Indiana head coach Mike Woodson hired to join Sacramento Kings coaching staff Mike Woodson returns to the NBA after coaching from 2021-2025
Yesterday it was officially reported by KCRA that former Indiana Hoosiers head coach and longtime NBA coach Mike Woodson would be returning to the NBA to be the assistant coach of the Sacramento Kings.
From the KCRA report:
“Mike Woodson, a former Kings player with NBA head coaching experience, and fan favorite Bobby Jackson, also a former King, who even served previously as an assistant coach with the organization, will be hired as assistant coaches.
“Multiple sources told KCRA 3’s Sean Cunningham that both Woodson and Jackson will join the coaching staff of Doug Christie, who recently signed a multi-year deal with the Kings to be their next head coach. Those sources spoke on the condition of anonymity because the hiring of assistant coaches was not yet official.”
In addition to Mike Woodson joining Doug Christie’s staff, I’ve had multiple sources tell me that Bobby Jackson will indeed return to Sacramento as an assistant coach.
