NBA Breaking News: Phoenix Suns dismiss Monty Williams, reigning NBA Coach of the Year

The Phoenix Suns Fire Coach Monty Williams After Play-Off Loss

In a shock move, the Phoenix Suns have fired their coach, Monty Williams.

We are grateful for everything that Monty has brought to our team and community,” says James Jones, president of basketball operations at Suns. His removal means five franchises are now looking for new head coaches: Bucks, Raptors, Rockets Pistons and most recently Suns.

• Houston Rockets did not renew Stephen Silas contract before end of season
• Dwane Casey resigned as Detroit Pistons’ head coach despite winning Coach of The Year award back in 2018.
