Having already made a coaching change once this season, it seems the Kings might be ready to jump back on the carousel.
Reports from various sources say the Sacramento front office is engaged in serious discussions with George Karl to take over as head coach of the slumping team.
From Marc Stein of ESPN.com:
Despite the fact that team owner Vivek Ranadive recently signed Tyrone Corbin to a contract through the end of this season, a nose-dive record of 1-10 over the past two-plus weeks has the perennially befuddled franchise getting itchy on the trigger finger again.
But sources say Ranadive is increasingly intrigued by the idea of bringing Karl in immediately after initially pledging to give Corbin the rest of the season to make his case.
From Marc Spears of Yahoo Sports:
Karl has professed to the Kings that he would concentrate solely on coaching and not front-office moves, a source said. He has also told the Kings that he is a huge fan of All-Star center DeMarcus Cousins.
The Kings do have some concern that Karl could get interest from the Orlando Magic for their coaching opening as well, a source said.
