Rockets coaching candidates: Top options to replace Stephen Silas
Some of the Rockets' many options to replace Stephen Silas as coach are from left, Kenny Atkinson, Sam Cassell and former coach Mike D'Antoni.
The retooling could make the Rockets look very different, but before they get to it, they will begin the second coaching search of Tilman Fertitta’s years as franchise owner, and the second search that general manager Rafael Stone will lead. Potential candidates could change, particularly if current head coaches move on. Raptors coach Nick Nurse, a former coach of the year who led the Raptors to the NBA championship in his first season, said he will consider his future after the season. But there is a variety of names likely to be considered.The Rockets hoped to be the sort of hard-playing, tenacious team during a rebuild that Atkinson led with the Nets.
