Mike Brown, the new head coach of the New York Knicks, is reportedly expected to hire a new associate head coach and demote Rick Brunson from that position and into a "lesser" role, according to Stefan Bondy of the New York Post.

Jalen Brunson's father, who has been an assistant coach with the Knicks since his son signed with the team in 2022, will see his role change with a new regime in place. According to the New York Post's Stefan Bondy, Brown is set to hire a new associate head coach, which will reduce Brunson's role.

The New York Knicks have confirmed the hiring of Mike Brown as the team’s new head coach. Brown, a two-time NBA Coach of the Year, replaces Tom Thibodeau, who was fired by the Knicks last month after guiding the franchise to its deepest playoff run in 25 years.
