FIBA World Cup Day 1 roundup: Serbia wins

David Adelman has agreed to become head coach of the Denver Nuggets on a permanent basis. Adelman, a longtime assistant coach to Michael Malone, was elevated to interim head coach toward the end of the regular season.

Adelman helped lead the Nuggets to a first round series win over the LA Clippers and then a seven-game series loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Adelman began his NBA career with the Minnesota Timberwolves in 2011 before a brief stint with the Orlando Magic and then joining the Nuggets in 2017.

Denver still hasn’t hired a general manager to replace Calvin Booth.
