The Washington Wizards expect to have Brian Keefe return as their coach in 2026-27, general manager Will Dawkins told reporters Thursday.
"I anticipate Brian to be here," Dawkins said when asked about Keefe's status during his end-of-season news conference.
Keefe has presided over one of the NBA's youngest rosters in his two-plus seasons as Wizards coach, shepherding Washington through a rebuilding phase and overseeing the development of a roster that featured several first-round picks: center Alex Sarr, guards Tre Johnson and Bub Carrington, and forwards Bilal Coulibaly, Will Riley and Kyshawn George.
