Rumor: Kevin Young Could Be Staying as the Suns Top Assistant

Spread the love

More good news for Suns fans as Kevin Young could still remain in the top assistant role next season with Frank Vogel. Even after being a finalist for the head coaching gig, Young might decide to stay on staff with the team according to 98.7 John Gambadoro.

This move keeps a good offensive-minded coach on their team to match up with one of the best defensive-minded coaches in the league together. The offensive philosophy for the Suns won’t change a lot but the defensive adjustments will be night and day.

Rumor has it that Suns star player Devin Booker wanted Young to become the next head coach before Mat Ishbia pivoted in another direction. With Young possibly staying as a top assistant, the Suns could be getting the best of both worlds in terms of a defensive upgrade while also keeping their top offensive guru.
