Billups Says NBA 'Light-Years' Ahead Of NFL In Hiring Practices

(Undated) -- Blazers head coach Chauncey Billups is impressed with how the NBA hires head coaches. Billups said Wednesday that the NBA is "light-years ahead of where any other league is" when it comes to head coach hiring practices. This comes after ex-Dolphins head coach Brian Flores filed a lawsuit against the NFL for alleged racist hiring practices in the league. As of Thursday, the NFL has just one Black head coach out of 32 teams. By contrast, the NBA currently has 14 Black head coaches - and 16 minority head coaches - in the 30-team league. The Blazers host the Thunder tonight.
