Following a loss to the Pacers in the Eastern Conference Finals, the Knicks fired head coach Tom Thibodeau. He helped New York reach their first Conference Finals in the last 25 years.
Since firing Thibodeau, the Knicks have requested to interview five active head coaches. They’ve been denied on all five. With that, the team is shifting its focus to two coaches who were let go in 2024-25. According to Sam Amick of The Athletic. New York is expected to pursue Mike Brown and Taylor Jenkins.
