The Indiana Pacers announced the signing of head coach Nate McMillan to a multi-year extension on Tuesday.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed, but reports of the extension being finalised in early August said his new contract will run through the 2020-21 season.
McMillan, 54, was entering the final guaranteed year of his deal. He helped the Pacers to a 48-34 record and their second consecutive postseason appearance last season, despite the trading away of five-time All-Star Paul George. Indiana lost in seven games to the Cleveland Cavaliers in the first round of the playoffs.
McMillan is 90-74 in two years at the helm of the Pacers after spending three years as an assistant for Indiana.
