Sunday’s game against the Indiana Pacers marked Jay Triano’s 41st game as interim coach. With that being the halfway point of an NBA season, azcentral sports talked to General Manager Ryan McDonough Sunday about the job Triano has done and the coaching situation going forward.
Some of McDonough’s answers are condensed for space:
Question: Triano is 16-24 as Phoenix’s coach but 13-17 when Devin Booker plays. What has impressed you most about the job he’s done thus far?
Answer: I think the one that stands out the most is ball movement and player movement.
