NBA: Charlotte has found its new coach

Jeff Peterson, one of the leaders of the Hornets, clarified that Lee would join his new club once his time with the Celtics was over. The Boston players, who had the best record of the regular season (64-18), began their Eastern Conference semi-final against Cleveland on Tuesday with a victory, played in the best of seven matches.

Lee, 39, was an assistant coach in the NBA for ten seasons, first in Atlanta from 2014 to 2018, then in Milwaukee from 2018 to 2023, where he helped lead the Bucks to the title in 2021. In ten years, the teams where he was assistant coach reached the play-offs nine times, and finished first in the regular season four times out of the last six seasons.

“The opportunity to become head coach of the Charlotte Hornets is a dream come true,” Lee said. “The Hornets have a core of talented young players and I am excited about our future and what we can build.” The Hornets have missed the playoffs the past eight seasons and have never won a playoff series since their founding as the Charlotte Bobcats in 2004.

“His character and ability to connect with players while instilling a culture of accountability will serve us well in building a competitive team built for long-term success,” Peterson said.
