The Sacramento Kings are expected to target a head coach with prior experience, particularly in turning lottery teams into playoffs teams.

Kenny Atkinson, Steve Clifford, Mark Jackson and Mike Brown are amongst the candidates with prior experience. Milwaukee Bucks assistants Charles Lee and Darvin Ham are also candidates and would be first time head coaches.

Marc Stein previously reported that Clifford and Jackson, along with Mike D'Antoni and Terry Stotts were potential candidates for the job. 

The Kings parted ways with Alvin Gentry as interim head coach on Monday.
