Sixers assistant coach Coby Karl is reportedly "not expected back" after two years under head coach Nick Nurse, according to Michael Scotto of HoopsHype on Wednesday morning.

Karl had a brief NBA career before playing overseas until his retirement in 2015. The son of former NBA head coach George Karl, the 41-year-old transitioned into coaching, eventually joining the Sixers organization in 2021 when he was named head coach of their G League affiliate, the Delaware Blue Coats.

After leading Delaware to a championship in his second season, Karl climbed the ladder, joining Nurse's staff as an assistant prior to the 2023-24 season.

While it was previously reported that Sixers assistant coach Bobby Jackson was leaving the organization after two years to rejoin the Sacramento Kings, Scotto reported Wednesday that Jackson is merely a candidate to join Doug Christie's staff in Sacramento, indicating a deal is not done on that front.
