Kevin Durant wishes Maurice Cheeks well
By Dan Feldman
"Congrats to the great Mo Cheeks on getting the head coaching Job in Detroit! He will be missed! He will always be a Thunder"
It’s nice to see such a great player recognize Cheeks, and it’s really no surprise. Cheeks is affable, and there are strong indications he’s a good assistant coach, the role he held with the Thunder.
My concerns come with Cheeks’ ability to create and implement a system as a head coach, skills he didn’t have to show while working with Durant.
