The interim tag has officially been removed.
The Phoenix Suns named James Jones their general manager Thursday after the former NBA player served as a interim following the firing of Ryan McDonough two weeks before the 2018-19 season began.
"James has demonstrated a remarkable ability to manage the day-to-day efforts of our front office while developing strong relationships with our players, coaches and those across our organization and league,” Suns team owner Robert Sarver said in a news release.
