Congrats, Nate! Former Suns assistant Bjorkgren named head coach of the Indiana Pacers

Nate Bjorkgren, who once worked at both the D-League and NBA level for the Suns organization, was named the head coach of the Indiana Pacers today. I am so happy for one of the nicest guys in the entire league.

OFFICIAL: We have hired Nate Bjorkgren as our new head coach. Bjorkgren most recently served as an assistant on the Toronto Raptors, who won the NBA Championship during the 2018-19 season. Welcome to Indiana, Coach Bjorkgren!
