The Nets’ 2022-23 regular season has been anything but smooth sailing. Head coach Jacque Vaughn has been able to deal with it all, though. Brooklyn has finally rewarded him for those efforts.
Just think about all the things Vaughn has witnessed/had to deal with so far this season. He began the year as an assistant, so he watched the first Kyrie Irving debacle unfold thanks to his social media activity. Then, he watched Steve Nash lose his job as head coach. It didn’t take long for many to think the suspended Ime Udoka would take his place.
