Report: Kings Upset With Coach Dave Joerger Not Giving Younger Players More Minutes

The Kings front office is taking issue with how coach Dave Joerger is distributing minutes among the team's younger players like Marvin Bagley III, Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports reports.

Sacramento brass were expecting the team to focus more on developing some of its younger players this season, but Joerger's win-now approach that has him playing more veterans could lead to his dismissal from the team.

Joerger is in his third season with the Kings and is under contract through 2019-20. Since the 2006-07 season, the Kings have had nine different coaches lead them for at least 20 games, counting Joerger.
