Bulls fire Boylen after 123 games

The Chicago Bulls fired coach Jim Boylen on Friday, ending a rocky tenure marked by clashes with players, a franchiserecord 56point loss and a 3984 record in parts of two seasons with a rebuilding team. The Bulls were one of the eight teams that didn’t qualify for the NBA’s restart at Walt Disney World, leading them to miss the postseason for the fourth time in five years.

Sacramento Kings general manager Vlade Divac stepped down and was replaced on an interim basis by Joe Dumars. The Kings announced the move a day after they ended their 14th straight season without a playoff berth.

Heat’s Jones hurt in loss to Pacers

Doug McDermott scored 23 points and Indiana beat Miami 10992 in a game delayed for several minutes late in the third quarter when Heat forward Derrick Jones Jr. was injured as the NBA wrapped up its regular season near Orlando.

Jones was hurt in a collision with Indiana center Goga Bitadze. The Heat announced via Twitter that Jones had a neck strain and had undergone an MRI exam, CT scan and concussion test.

“That just takes the air out of the building,” Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. “You just want to be able to get through this game and be able to have everybody available for the playoffs.”
