Following the introductory press conference of Monty Williams as the Phoenix Suns’ fifth head coach in four years, Williams said on Bickley and Marotta that former owner Jerry Colangelo recommended him to current owner Robert Sarver.
Then on Burns and Gambo, several hours later, Colangelo stated that Sarver had called him (he noted that they hadn’t spoken in a long time), and asked about his opinion on Monty.
Of course, Colangelo knew Monty Williams from his days as an assistant coach on USA Basketball, had a very good relationship with him, and obviously believed very strongly in his coaching abilities.
