SAN ANTONIO — According to a report from ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, the San Antonio Spurs are hiring New York Knicks player development coach Scott King as the new head coach of the team's G League affiliate, Austin Spurs.
King started his NBA career with the Detroit Pistons for the 2018-19 season as a video intern. He also was part of basketball operations for the G League's Fort Wayne Mad Ants (2017-18).
In 2022, he had an altercation with Knicks' Julius Randle during a Lakers game when King tried to show him a video during a time-out. Randle slapped the computer and got into a heated exchange before the pair had to be separated by the team.
