Stotts resigned a month ago & I wasn’t too down about it considering Griffin could go after someone who fit with him better. But so far other than rumors about Sergio Scariolo, I haven’t heard any news about assistant coaching pursuits.

Is it too late in the season? Griffin is doing a good job with where we’re at in the season, but it’d be helpful to get another set of eyes on things, & take some of the load off of AG & Prunty.

    There has been only one rumored candidate at the beginning of November:

    “Former Virtus Bologna coach and current Spain NT coach Sergio Scariolo has received a proposal from the Milwaukee Bucks to return to the NBA and serve as Adrian Griffin’s first assistant coach, as reported by Superbasket.” Source Tweet by Christos Harpidis.

    Edit: I asked a couple of people I know that work in the NBA, and one said it is rumored that Scariolo helped a lot with the super aggressive hedging defense of the Raptors.

      I saw these rumors, too. Mostly on Spanish language social media.

    That’s a question for Giannis, he runs the team.

    They need to be focusing more on the defensive side off the ball right now honestly.
