The Sacramento Kings hired Memphis Grizzlies assistant Eric Musselman on Friday as their new head coach.
The Kings confirmed a report from ESPN.com's Marc Stein that Musselman was their choice. They scheduled a 4 p.m. (ET) news conference for Saturday to announce the hiring, spokesman Troy Hanson said.
"I know we're going to be the best-prepared team in the league now," Kings co-owner Joe Maloof told The Associated Press in a phone interview Friday night. "We just like him a lot. We're really comfortable with the guy. Our whole family feels that way."
All I can say is...I hope he can mesh well with Ron-Ron Artest. Or else, God help us all!
Eric Musselman is the new Kings Coach!
