Despite the fact that the Toronto Raptors were among the first teams to fire their head coach this season, only they and the Phoenix Suns remain with a vacancy. The Raptors have taken a wide-open approach to their coaching situation, and they have been moving along at a glacial pace.
The Raptors reportedly were snooping around Monty Williams’ camp before the Detroit Pistons gave him a frankly eye-watering amount of money to be their next head coach. Anyone eyeing him to come in and change the culture was dealt a swift kick in the teeth by this deal.
