The New York Knicks fired coach Derek Fisher on Monday after the team lost its fifth straight game and nine of its past 10.
ESPN's Ramona Shelburne and Ian Begley first reported the firing.
The Knicks are 23-31 this season after going 17-65 in Fisher's first season in 2014-15. New York's current losing skid contributed to the timing of the move, but the team was already convinced Fisher was not transitioning from the role of player to coach effectively, sources told ESPN's Brian Windhorst.
