North Carolina Hiring Former Nuggets Coach Michael Malone
"Michael Malone, who was let go by the Denver Nuggets, posted a 471-327 regular season record and led the team to a 44-36 postseason record, including two Western Conference Finals appearances and the 2023 championship."
"Billy Donovan, linked to the North Carolina job, has had a challenging tenure with the Chicago Bulls, posting a 224-254 record and making the playoffs just once in six seasons."
North Carolina has appointed Michael Malone as its new head coach for the 2026-27 season, following the dismissal of Hubert Davis. Malone, previously with the Denver Nuggets, achieved a 471-327 regular season record and led the team to a championship in 2023. This move eliminates the possibility of Billy Donovan, the current Bulls head coach, taking the position. Donovan has had a challenging tenure in Chicago, with a 224-254 record, and has only made the playoffs once in six seasons.
