General manager Mitch Kupchak on Kemba Walker saying the chance to win more will factor heavily in his free agency decision. By
Charlotte Hornets general manager Mitch Kupchak says he hasn’t, and wouldn’t, tell coach James Borrego who to play.
Kupchak hired Borrego off the San Antonio Spurs staff. In Borrego’s first full season as an NBA head coach, he frequently tinkered with his rotation. Kupchak said he’s in constant communication with Borrego, but it’s not his place to dictate playing time to the coach.
“I’m not going to go in and second-guess, and tell him who to play and who not to play,” Kupchak said in a post-season media press conference.
