The Phoenix Suns didn’t have to make an offer Friday in Toronto.
That would’ve given the Los Angeles Lakers the power to make a better one to convince Monty Williams to fill their head coaching vacancy.
But by not putting their cards on the table, the Suns can wait on the Lakers to put theirs out there first and then counter that offer with a better one.
The Republic learned over the weekend Phoenix didn’t offer Williams the job, according to league sources, while the Los Angeles Times reported the Lakers didn’t make Williams an offer on Thursday.
