Ime Udoka has agreed to a deal to become the next head coach of the Houston Rockets, sources told ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.
The Rockets investigated the circumstances of Udoka’s Celtics departure with the team and league office, Wojnarowski added. Udoka was dismissed after findings of an inappropriate workplace relationship. He led Boston to the 2022 NBA Finals in his only season as head coach.
