Brooklyn Nets fire head coach Jacque Vaughn
NEW YORK - The Brooklyn Nets have fired their head coach.
It's not immediately clear who will take over on an interim basis.
Jacque Vaughn is out after a disappointing first half of the season.
The Nets went into the all-star break with a 50 point loss to the Boston Celtics.
Vaughn was given a contract extension just about a year ago.
The team is now changing course after a 21-33 start to the season.
So far, the Nets have only said that an interim coach will be named in the near future.
