George Karl will become Sacramento Kings' third coach this season, according to reports.

Current coach Tyrone Corbin has lost 12 of his last 14 games and is expected to be dismissed after tonight's match against Milwaukee Bucks, while former coach Michael Malone was fired in December.

Karl has been out of NBA coaching since 2013, when he left Denver Nuggets after being named NBA Coach of the Year, but The AP says that he will be in charge for their match with Boston Celtics next Friday.

Karl is one of just nine coaches in NBA history to have won more than 1,000 games in his career.
