Sacramento Kings coach Mike Brown spoke with the media on Thursday morning before facing the Golden State Warriors in Game 3 of the NBA Playoffs. On Wednesday, Brown was unanimously awarded the NBA’s Coach of the Year for helping turn the franchise into a winner.

Just under a year from Brown’s hiring date of May 9th, 2022, Sacramento won the Pacific Division, has reached the NBA Playoffs, and is currently up 2-0 in the first round on Brown’s old team, the Golden State Warriors.

Coach Brown also spoke about more attention being on Sabonis now following his altercation with Draymond Green, making adjustments for Game 3 and more.
