Ime Udoka is secure in his position as head coach of the Houston Rockets. Perhaps he will try a side gig in stand-up comedy this summer.
Udoka and general manager Rafael Stone met with the media at Toyota Center on Tuesday for their end-of-season media availability. Udoka was asked to share the advice he gave Jalen Green before the two parted ways for the summer, a natural question given Green's surge toward stardom in March. In typical Udoka fashion, Houston's coach was rather succinct with his initial remarks.
"Do it earlier and we're playing right now [in the postseason]," Udoka recalled before letting out a wry smile.
