MIAMI - Toronto Raptors' Nick Nurse was named NBA Coach of the Year for the 2019-20 season on Saturday with his club still defending the crown.
The Raptors own a 3-0 lead over Brooklyn in a best-of-seven first round NBA playoff series inside a quarantine bubble at Disney World in Orlando, Florida, and can complete a sweep into round two by winning Sunday. "Those guys are as smart and tough and competitive as it comes," Nurse said of his players."You don't do it without those kind of guys."Two-time NBA Coach of the Year Mike Budenholzer of Milwaukee was second with 147 points and five first-place votes, while Oklahoma City's Billy Donovan was third on 134 with four first-place votes.
