Followers of the NBA were shocked on Thursday with news that Scott Skiles had resigned as the head coach of the Orlando Magic.
“It was surprising for all of us,” general manager Rob Hennigan said. “It was surprising for me, for our staff, for our players. It’s one of those things where there’s a visceral effect to an occurrence like this.”
Starting Friday, Hennigan will begin the process of gathering a list of candidates for the head coach position. Josh Robbins of the Orlando Sentinel has a list of possible candidates and they include: James Borrego, Adrian Griffin, Jeff Hornacek, Mark Jackson, Ettore Messina, Frank Vogel and Mike Woodson.
