After a month after Dwane Casey was booted out from the Toronto Raptors camp, he was able to land a new coaching gig.
The Detroit Pistons signed Dwane Casey to a five-year deal to become head coach of the Pistons.
“Dwane is one of the most successful and highly respected coaches in our league,” Pistons owner Tom Gores said. “He’s a great communicator and a leader who will connect with our players and accelerate their growth. Having spent many hours with Dwane over the last few weeks, I’m confident he is the right person to get us to the next level.”
According to a report: Casey led Toronto to a team-record 59 wins this year and helped the franchise earn the top seed in the Eastern Conference for the first time, a performance that won him coach of the year honours from his peers at the National Basketball Coaches Association. He had one year remaining on a three-year, $18-million dollar extension when he was fired shortly after Toronto was swept by the Cleveland Cavaliers. He was 320-238 in seven seasons and is Toronto’s winningest coach.
Will Dwane Casey turn the Detroit Pistons to a NBA Playoff contender?
