Doug Christie will remain as the head coach of the Sacramento Kings, team sources told The Athletic.With the Kings (22-59) falling well short of their internal expectations, and league-wide speculation that they might move on from Christie at season’s end, the decision has been made to continue forward with the 55-year-old, first-time head coach. Christie, a former King who remains a fan favorite, took over for the fired Mike Brown on an interim basis in late December of 2024 and signed a three-year deal last summer. As The Athletic previously reported, that contract includes two guaranteed seasons (approximately $2 million annually) and a team option for the 2027-28 campaign that would include a significant raise if it was exercised.The rationale of retaining Christie, it appears, is two-fold.Advertisement
