Jordi Fernandez officially named Nets coach
Former Sacramento assistant to take reins in Brooklyn
The Brooklyn Nets had to wait a while to get their man.
But once the Sacramento Kings were ousted from the NBA play-in tournament last week, Nets general manager Sean Marks was officially able to name Jordi Fernandez as Brooklyn’s new head coach.
“We’re thrilled to announce Jordi Fernández as Brooklyn’s new head coach,” Marks finally confirmed through a team-issued statement Monday, nearly a week after ESPN and other sources revealed the hire.
