Lindsey Harding Becomes Head Coach of Sacramento Kings' G League Affiliate

Former WNBA Star and Trailblazer, Harding Makes History As One of the Few Female and African-American Coaches in Men's Basketball

Lindsey Harding, a former WNBA and international star, has been announced as the new head coach of the Sacramento Kings' G League affiliate in Stockton.
Before her current role, Harding worked her way up the ranks as an assistant with the Kings and Philadelphia 76ers, and was a player development coach for four years.
Harding has been recognized for excelling both as a player and coach, including being the 2007 Naismith College Player of the Year at Duke, the No. 1 WNBA draft pick that same year, and she also led the South Sudan women's senior national team to their first ever appearance in the FIBA AfroBasket qualifier.
As an African-American woman, Harding acknowledges her trailblazing role in coaching men's basketball, hoping to inspire young girls and open up future opportunities in the NBA.
The Kings' G League team is the only one to have women in both the head coach and general manager positions, with Harding working closely with Anjali Ranadivé, the daughter of Kings owner Vivek Ranadivé.
