Let’s go over a couple of Sabean’s tasks — not necessarily in order — now that he’s leading the affiliate.

Task #1: Valley Suns Head Coach

One of Sabean’s first tasks will be finding a coach for the team calling Arizona State hockey’s Mullett Arena their home. This decision would likely involve Phoenix Suns head coach Mike Budenholzer to ensure synergy between G League and NBA levels.
