There were reports that went around today that former Suns head coach Monty Williams is leaning towards more likely taking the 2023-24 season off after spending his last 4 seasons with the Suns.
Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports reported the news earlier today and talked about the story behind why this is the case.
“Williams was also recently pursued by Detroit for the Pistons’ job, sources said, which must have factored into a slowed result between Lee, Collins, and Ollie. At this moment, it appears Williams is more likely to take the next season off, with three years and $21 million remaining on his Suns deal than to return to the sidelines in a new situation.
