According to sources, former Warriors coach Mark Jackson, Golden State Warriors assistant Mike Brown, and Brooklyn Nets consultant Steve Clifford are among the candidates for the head-coaching job in the Kings.
Three of them have head-coaching experience. The longest active streak in the NBA without a playoff appearance is by the Kings.
The Kings finished the season with an interim coach who replaced a fired coach. The Kings have not won 40 games in a season since 2005-06.
Monte McNair said after the season that they were going to run a comprehensive and very process-driven coaching search.
The franchise is being built around two young stars, center Domantas Sabonis and point guard De&Aaron Fox.
The Kings have 11 players under contract, including last year's lottery pick, Davion Mitchell, and veteran Harrison Barnes. They have three picks in the June draft.
