Betting odds focused on Nick Nurse as Houston Rockets' next head coach
as the clear favorite to take over for Silas.
Nurse, who the online sportsbook has as an even-money favorite to get the Houston job, has ties to the Rockets, coaching the Rio Grande Valley Vipers, the Rockets' G-League affiliate, for two seasons, including leading them to a title in 2013. That propelled him to an assistant's job in Toronto where he eventually took over as head coach in 2018 and led the Raptors to their only NBA title in that first season.
