The Cleveland Cavaliers have been granted permission to interview two more head coaching candidates in the franchise's ongoing search, including New York Knicks associate head coach Johnnie Bryant and the Miami Heat top assistant Chris Quinn, sources told ESPN on Friday.
Bryant has spent four years on Tom Thibodeau's staff and previously worked his way from player development coach to a front-of-the-bench assistant with the Utah Jazz, where he worked closely with Cavaliers star Donovan Mitchell for six years.
Quinn, an Ohio native, has spent 10 years on Erik Spoelstra's staff with the Heat after an NBA and European playing career that included stops with the Heat, Nets, Spurs and Cavaliers.
