Wizards’ Scott Brooks on the hot seat?
Brooks is in the final season of his five-year contract
Washington Wizards head coach Scott Brooks is on the hot seat after starting the season with only two wins in ten games.
Per The Ringer, Head coach Scott Brooks, who is in the final season of his five-year contract, looks lost trying to find effective lineups. League sources say Brooks is sitting firmly on the hot seat. New coach or not, the team also just needs to be better. Some of their returning players are struggling—Davis Bertans has apparently lost his jumper, and Thomas Bryant still can’t protect the rim (and now he’s out for a season with a torn ACL). Their new additions haven’t moved the needle, either—Robin Lopez looks roasted, and Deni Avdija is just a rookie figuring things out.
