Sources: George Karl Expecting Son Coby to be Waived by Denver

by Chris TomassonFiled under: Nuggets, NBA CoachesSources said Tuesday that Denver coach George Karl is expecting his son, Nuggets point guard Coby Karl, to be waived by a Sunday deadline in which his contract would become fully guaranteed for next season. That could prevent Coby Karl from becoming the first man to play in an NBA game while being coached by his father. The Nuggets have until Aug. 15 to make calls on the contracts of both Coby Karl and Brian Butch, who were signed to deals last April. Either would have his contract fully guaranteed if still on the team past that date. Sources said George Karl, who declined an interview request Tuesday, expects his son to be waived and is already sending out feelers to find other teams that might want to sign him. The Coby Karl contract the Nuggets can get out of is one for the minimum of $854,389. Permalink | Email this | Linking Blogs | Comments
