The Phoenix Suns have found their leader, as the team is hiring former Cleveland Cavaliers assistant coach Jordan Ott as their new head coach, ESPN reported on Wednesday.
Ott was previously an assistant coach for the Cavaliers, Los Angeles Lakers, Brooklyn Nets and Atlanta Hawks. He and fellow Cavaliers assistant Johnnie Bryant were the finalists for the job.
The Suns are coming off a 36-46 season that saw them miss the playoffs and fire head coach Mike Budenholzer after one season. Budenholzer was hired after the Suns fired Frank Vogel following just one season, as well.
Phoenix also has a new general manager, as James Jones became a “senior advisor” and the franchise hired Brian Gregory as its new general manager in May.
The Suns haven’t won a playoff series since the 2022-23 NBA season.

Legendární trenér slaví 80 let. Humor je způsob, jak přežít, říká Škorpil
Začněme netradičně písní Plastic People of the Universe, kteří zhudebnili báseň Egona Bondyho: ‚Když je dnes člověku 20, chce se mu hnusem zvracet. Ale těm, co je 40, je toho vyblít ještě více. Jen ten, komu je 60, může jít se sklerózou klidně spát.“ Vám je dnes 80, jak byste jako mistr bonmotů pokračoval?To jste mi dal nesmírně těžký úkol. Aby o tom člověk mohl něco říct, musí se osmdesáti nejprve dožít. Dnes je dlouhověkost jako taková způsobená farmacií. Kdyby například nebylo péče mého internisty, tak bych tady už s nějakou dávkou pravděpodobnosti nebyl. Dříve lidé přirozenou smrtí odcházeli naprosto běžně a v klidu. Leč v dlouhověkosti se málokdy sejde tělesnost s duševnem. Takže buď převažují tak zvaní ležáci, protože to nezvládají pohybově, ale myslí jim to. Do druhé garnitury na opačném pólu patří ti, co jsou pohybově dobří, ovšem vyjdou z baráku a nevědí, kam se […]

Pacers vs. Thunder: History repeats, and OKC stands stunned after letting Finals opener slip away
OKLAHOMA CITY — The lead wasn’t big enough.The Thunder had opened the 2025 NBA Finals with a borderline-unbelievable half of defensive basketball. They’d forced the visiting Pacers into a whopping 19 turnovers of all shapes and sizes — travels in the open floor, kickouts airmailed into the backcourt, thread-the-needle bounce passes picked off, bobbled pocket passes, moving screens, 24-second violations, you name it.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementIndiana entered the Finals scoring nearly 120 points per 100 possessions, a pristine picture of offensive efficiency. And for two quarters, against the best defense in the NBA, they could barely successfully complete a pass.“Through the course of the game, it kept getting … it felt like it could get ugly,” Pacers superstar Tyrese Haliburton said. “Who knows where this game is heading?”“I think obviously, when you turn the ball over that much, you expect to be down […]
Pacers vs. Thunder NBA Finals: Anatomy of a comeback — How the Pacers once again did the unthinkable
In transition from the Indiana Pacers' 24th turnover of the night — the running theme of Game 1 of the NBA Finals — Jalen Williams dunked home a 94-79 advantage for the Oklahoma City Thunder with 9:42 remaining in the fourth quarter. The home team had controlled the entirety of the game, never trailing.From there it all went to hell for Oklahoma City. Or the other way for Indiana.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementWas it a comeback? Was it a collapse?It was a bit of both, and it was as entertaining an opener to the league's championship series as we have seen in some time.
