Mitch Johnson, Kenny Atkinson named February Coaches of Month

San Antonio Spurs head coach Mitch Johnson and Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Kenny Atkinson have earned NBA Coach of the Month honors for February.

Johnson guided the Spurs to a flawless 11-0 record during the month, an impressive run that came even though just three of those games were played at home in San Antonio.

Atkinson, meanwhile, steered the Cavaliers to an 8-3 mark in February, successfully integrating James Harden into the lineup during that stretch.
