Bobby Jackson Returns Sacramento Kings Assistant Coach
Bobby Jackson is returning to the Sacramento Kings as an assistant coach under head coach Doug Christie, confirming earlier reports and ending his two-year stint as an assistant with the Philadelphia 76ers. Jackson, a former NBA Sixth Man of the Year and fan favorite, played six seasons with the Kings and has previously served as their assistant coach and head coach of their G League affiliate, the Stockton Kings. His coaching style emphasizes accountability and player connection, traits appreciated by those he coaches. Jackson and Christie were teammates during the Kings’ successful early 2000s era and share a sense of unfinished business after their 2002 playoff loss to the Lakers. The Kings recently also hired Mike Woodson as associate head coach, adding veteran experience to the staff as the team seeks to build on its recent changes under Christie and new general manager Scott Perry. Despite initial uncertainty reported earlier in May, the Kings have formally secured permission from the 76ers to bring Jackson back to Sacramento.
