Michael Jordan: Bobcats Owner Michael Jordan Extends Paul Silas’s Contract
Silas was named the Bobcat’s head coach on Dec. 22 and since then, Charlotte has posted a 15-13 record, putting them back in contention to enter the playoffs.
“This team has made great strides in the eight weeks since Paul has taken over,” Charlotte Bobcats General Manager Rod Higgins said in a statement.
Before he took over, the team had a 9-19 record. The Bobcats currently are at 24-32, only a game-and-a-half behind the Indiana Pacers for the eighth seed in the Eastern Conference.
Silas has inspired the team to “play with confidence, enthusiasm, and pride,” added Higgins.

The contract extension is good until the end of this season.
Before he took the job in December, Silas was out of the league for five years. Two years ago, he suffered from blood clots and nearly died.
He has a career coaching record of 370-413 with the then-San Diego Clippers between 1980-1983, the Charlotte/New Orleans Hornets in 1999-2003, and the Cleveland Cavaliers from 2003-2005.
