Sacramento Kings: Time for Vlade Divac to do the right thing—extend the staff

While Sacramento Kings Head Coach Dave Joerger is only locked up through next season (a topic for another day to be sure), his core group of assistants including Elston Turner, Bob Thornton, Bryan Gates, Duane Ticknor, Jason March, and Dan Hartfield are effectively working in lame duck status as their contracts have not been picked up yet for the upcoming 2019-2020 season and beyond. Vlade Divac could easily put the drama aside from the Brandon Williams incident and take a huge step towards continuity for a franchise looking towards a successful future.

After all, the assistant coaches probably spend more time with the players than any other faction of the organization.
