According to sources close to the Kings, Kenny Natt is expected to be informed by the end of this week that he will not return as head coach.
General manager Geoff Petrie said he is scheduled to leave Friday for Europe, where Spanish sensation Ricky Rubio is on his list of must-see prospects.
Yet just as Petrie has taken his time addressing Natt’s situation it appears the search for a new coach will be equally deliberate. The list of possible candidates is said to include Eddie Jordan, Mike Fratello, Jeff Ruland and John Whisenant.
