Much like most of the NBA world Tuesday afternoon, Magic guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope couldn’t believe what he’d just read. After 10 years, which included the franchise’s first championship less than two seasons ago, the Nuggets fired coach Michael Malone. “Shocking … Very surprising,” Caldwell-Pope, who was a part of Denver’s 2023 title-winning squad, said in the locker room before Orlando hosted Atlanta at Kia Center. “Especially for me, I didn’t think it would happen. But there’s been a lot going on over there. Who knows. “Especially towards the end of the season, going into the playoffs, I’m just really surprised.”
