King says Cheeks will be back

"I think under these circumstances, he's done a good job," Sixers president Billy King said of Maurice Cheeks before the Sixers took to the floor versus the Los Angeles Lakers.

"I almost didn't really feel like I needed to, because we were always talking about this summer and planning like we normally have," King added. "But I thought with all the things being written, I probably should tell him, 'Hey, you are going to be the coach."'
