They’re actually happening! We were told last week that the Sixers would be interviewing three candidates for the vacant general manager position. But then, we were also told that Sam Hinkie had the full support of management to see his vision for the team through over a long-term time horizon, so it’s always best to operate under an “I’ll believe it when I see it” mentality with this organization.
Nevertheless, interviews have begun. Utah assistant GM Justin Zanik was first up on Tuesday.
A little nugget to report: I'm told Jazz assistant GM Justin Zanik is meeting with Philadelphia 76ers brass today to discuss his candidacy for their open GM slot.
