Brown is the NBA Coach of the Year in 2023. He took over the Kings in the summer of 2022. Brown led the Kings to a 48-win third-place record in the Western Conference in the first season, although they were upset by the sixth-seeded Warriors 4:3 in the first round of the playoffs. Eliminated, but Brown did bring better weather to the Kings, especially offense. Brown, who was known for his defense in his coaching career, perfectly transformed the Kings into a team that is good at offense and likes to play fast-paced offense and defense and three-point bombing.
The Kings led by Brown have several important changes in the 2022-23 season:
1. Scored 120.7 points per game, first in the league
2. Takes 37.7 three-pointers per game, sixth in the league
3. Three-point shooting percentage of 3.79%, eighth in the league
4. The Kings shot 4.94% from the field, second in the league
Not only did Brown perfectly stimulate the offensive potential of the main point Fox , he averaged 25 points per game, which was the second highest in his career, and his field goal percentage of 50% was the best in his career. Fox was upgraded to a star player in the league, and center King Shabonis had his first full season. Perfectly integrated into the system. More importantly, several core role players of the Kings, small forward Barnes, shooter Huerter, Best Sixth Man Monk , and rookie forward Murray are all in excellent condition in the hands of Brown.
Brown dares to use new players, fully tap the potential of the bench and role players, put them in reasonable positions, and change the previous coaching style of conservative employment and short rotation.
