NextImg:Steve Nash meets with Raptors about coaching job six months after Nets firing

Steve Nash could become the new King of the North.

The Canadian former Nets coach and Hall of Fame point guard has met with the Raptors about their coaching vacancy, according to The Athletic.

Nash posted a .584 winning percentage in two-plus tumultuous seasons in Brooklyn, before he was fired on Nov. 1 after just seven games (2-5).

Despite the trade-deadline departures of stars Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving, Nash’s replacement, Jacque Vaughn, led the Nets to a 43-32 record and the No. 6 playoff seed in the Eastern Conference.

The Raptors fired 2019 championship-winning coach Nick Nurse following a 41-41 finish, good for ninth in the East, and a play-in loss to the Bulls.

Toronto is said to be conducting “a wide-ranging search” for a replacement according to the report.
