Paul Westphal þjálfar Sacramento Kings næstu 2 árin

It had been 27 days since Paul Westphal made his pitch to be the Kings' next coach, when he sat with the team's brass in a Las Vegas hotel room and assured them that he could succeed in the future just as he had in the past.

Tuesday evening, the pitch paid off. Westphal, who has a record of 267-159 in six-plus seasons as an NBA head coach, was told he will be the next Kings coach.

That deal, which should be finalized today, includes two guaranteed seasons at $1.5 million each, with the third season a team option worth $2 million. There are likely incentives in the deal that could reward Westphal if the Kings improve even moderately next season.

Westphal er m.a. þekktur fyrir það að koma Phoenix Suns í úrslitin gegn Chicago Bulls 1993.
