Report: Knicks reach 3-year deal with Hornacek for head coaching job

[KnickstapeCity]

The New York Knicks have reached an agreement with Jeff Hornacek on a three-year deal to become the team's head coach, The Vertical's Adrian Wojnarowski reports, citing league sources.

​

This will mark the second head coaching job of Hornacek's career, having spent two-and-a-half seasons as the Suns' bench boss from 2013-16. Hornacek was fired from Phoenix earlier in the year after leading the Suns to a record of 14-35.

The arrival of Hornacek has largely been viewed as a surprise, as many believed Knicks president Phil Jackson would look to retain interim coach Kurt Rambis given his commitment to the triangle offense.

​

The Knicks will reportedly hold a news conference later this week to introduce Hornacek.
