The Suns parted ways with coach Monty Williams on Saturday night, two days after the team’s second-round playoff exit, but the 2021 NBA Coach of the Year already appears to have employment opportunities for next season.
Three teams already are interested in pursuing Williams, per The Athletic’s Shams Charania: the Bucks, Pistons and Raptors.
Charania reported that Williams still has three years and $21 million left on his Suns contract, so other teams must request permission to contact him. However, Williams is said to be focusing on his family in the immediate aftermath of his ouster.
