Report: Kings hiring NBA veteran Mike Brown as head coach

The Sacramento Kings have reached a four-year agreement to hire Mike Brown as their next head coach, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports. Terms of the deal weren't initially reported.

The Kings selected Brown from a reported list of candidates that included fellow head-coaching veterans Mike D'Antoni, Steve Clifford and Mark Jackson. Sacramento's vacancy is the first filled this offseason as the Los Angeles Lakers and Charlotte Hornets continue to conduct their searches after firing Frank Vogel and James Borrego, respectively.

Brown, 52, has spent the last six seasons as an assistant under head coach Steve Kerr with the Golden State Warriors.
