Kenny Atkinson has informed the Charlotte Hornets that he won't become the franchise's new coach and will remain with the Golden State Warriors as the top assistant, sources told ESPN on Saturday.

After accepting Charlotte's job offer during the NBA Finals last week, further conversations with the Hornets' organization led Atkinson to believe that both professionally and personally it would be best to remain with the Warriors, sources said.

If that's not a sign of red flags within the Hornets organization, I don't know what is.

Maybe Kerr might told him he may retire after this season or next to stay and he become new coach

Rumors are that Charlotte didn’t step up to pay him / Golden State paid more to keep him.

That seems really strange. It must be really cool to be GSW where you can pay your assistants more than other teams can pay their head coaches. That CHA job is seemingly a pretty decent job, too. LaMelo and Bridges are a nice starting point.
