The Toronto Raptors saw another disciple of head coach Nick Nurse earn himself an NBA head coaching job last offseason, as Nate Bjorkgren was named the next coach of an Indiana Pacers team that is trying anything and everything to get over the hump.
Bjorkgren immediately turned a team that 23rd in points scored and third in points allowed under Nate McMillan last year and had them at sixth in points scored and 25th in points allowed.
