Brown has been at the helm for each of the previous three seasons.

He has gone 94-70 in 164 games.

Last year, the Kings were the ninth seed in the Western Conference with a 46-36 record.

They beat Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors in their first play-in tournament game but lost to the New Orleans Pelicans in the second.

That said, the Kings have a talented roster that is led by De'Aaron Fox, Domantas Sabonis and Malik Monk (in addition to acquiring DeMar DeRozaon over the offseason).
