The Sacramento Kings are planning to offer Basketball Hall of Famer Nancy Lieberman an assistant coach position, which she will officially accept next week.
“Definitely I’m going to offer her a job,” Kings vice president Vlade Divac said Thursday, per Ailene Voisin of the Sacramento Bee. “George (Karl) and I talked about bringing her back after she helped us at summer league (in Las Vegas). She was terrific. She brings a different dimension. I think is a nice opportunity for her.”
Lieberman, 57, will be the NBA's second female assistant coach, joining the San Antonio Spurs' Becky Hammon.
