The Denver Nuggets have hired David Adelman as the team's permanent head coach. Nuggets boss Josh Kroenke said Thursday at a news conference that he was proud of the work Adelman did and the way the team rallied around his leadership. Adelman was named interim coach after Michael Malone was fired with three games to go in the 2024-2025 season, less than two years after he led the team to a championship. https://www.9news.com/article/sports/nba/denver-nuggets/david-adelman-hired-nuggets-coach/73-3d4a61f2-ab83-44a2-a83d-c022d77b5787 More local videos here: https://youtube.com/@9news Subscribe to NEXT: https://youtube.com/@Nexton9NEWS Stay connected: 9NEWS Website: http://www.9news.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ilike9news Twitter: https://twitter.com/9NEWS Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/9newsdenver/ Download the 9NEWS App: https://www.9news.com/appredirect/ Sign up for the 9NEWSLETTER: https://www.9news.com/email 9NEWS (KUSA) is located in Denver, Colorado.
