The Brooklyn Nets officially made Jacque Vaughn their new head coach after they reportedly considered Ime Udoka for the role.
“Jacque’s basketball acumen, competitiveness and intimate knowledge of our team and organization make him the clear-cut best person to lead our group moving forward,” general manager Sean Marks said. “He has a proven ability to get the best out of our players, hold them accountable and play a cohesive, team-first style of basketball.”
Vaughn had been an assistant with the Nets dating back to 2016. His head coaching experience includes two-plus seasons with the Orlando Magic, where he accumulated a record of 58-158, and a 10-game stretch with the Nets during the 2019-20 season.
