Knicks Coaching Search: New York to Interview Pelicans Assistant James Borrego

  • On June 25, 2025, the New York Knicks intend to conduct an interview with James Borrego, who currently serves as an assistant coach for the New Orleans Pelicans, for their vacant head coaching role.
  • This search comes after the Knicks parted ways with Tom Thibodeau, who last season guided the team to their deepest playoff run in over two decades by reaching the Eastern Conference Finals.
  • Borrego served as Charlotte Hornets head coach from 2018 to 2022, recording a 138-163 overall mark and missing the playoffs each year while improving the team by 10 wins annually in his last three seasons.
  • According to Shams Charania, James Borrego has been added to the list of candidates the Knicks plan to interview for their head coaching position, joining Mike Brown, Taylor Jenkins, and assistant coach Micah Nori.
  • If hired, Borrego would begin his second full-time head coaching role amid the Knicks' pursuit of a collaborative coach to build on the roster's talent.
