An NBA insider states that Brown's negotiations are expected to revolve around an eight-figure sum, given his Coach of the Year credentials and the recent surge in coaching salaries following significant deals like Monty Williams' $70 million contract with Detroit and Mike Budenholzer's $10 million per year deal.

Brown joined Sacramento ahead of the 2022-23 season and promptly led the team to its first playoff appearance since 2005-06. Though, the Kings suffered a first-round loss to the Golden State Warriors in seven games.

Although the Kings experienced a slight setback this past regular season, finishing with a 46-36 record and reaching the Play-In Tournament, optimism remains high for the team's trajectory.
