The Trail Blazers are "increasingly expected" to part ways with head coach Terry Stotts this offseason, according to The Athletic's Shams Charania and Sam Amick.
According to The Athletic, if Stotts can't “'pull a rabbit out of his hat'” with "a playoff miracle," in their words, the Blazers are expected to opt for a new coach.
If the team fires Stotts, they would reportedly look to hire a big-name, high-dollar coach, with names such as Lakers assistant Jason Kidd, Hawks interim coach Nate McMillan, 76ers assistant Dave Joerger and Clippers assistant Chauncey Billups floated as possible replacements.
