Nick Nurse is out after five seasons as Toronto Raptors coach, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski on Friday.
Former Boston Celtics coach Ime Udoka is expected to be a serious candidate to replace Nurse, sources said.
Nurse led the Raptors to the 2018-19 NBA title in his first season but never took Toronto to the same heights again. Toronto finished 41-41 this season before losing to the Chicago Bulls in the 9-10 game of the play-in tournament.
Nurse was 227-163 with the Raptors, leading them to three playoff appearances. He served as a Raptors assistant for five seasons before being promoted in June 2018.
