Toronto Raptors head coach Nick Nurse has been named the NBA Coach of the Year.
Milwaukee coach Mike Budenholzer was second after leading the Bucks to the best record in the suspended season, earning 147 points. Oklahoma City's Billy Donovan was third. Nurse is in his second season as Raptors head coach. The club went 53-19 in the pandemic-shortened 2019-20 regular season and posted a franchise-best .736 winning percentage.
The Raptors went 7-1 in the seeding games when the NBA resumed play following a months-long hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic. They will look for their first ever playoff sweep on Sunday, when they take a 3-0 lead into their series with the Brooklyn Nets.
