Few rumors had yet filtered about the future successor to Nick Nurse, landed by the Raptors last Friday. While the main track that led Ime Udoka, committed to the Rockets, evaporated, this is the name ofAdrian Griffin which is mentioned by the journalist Chris Haynes.
By allowing him to pass an interview, the Canadian front office is thus considering the possibility of internal promotion. Exactly as was the case when Nick Nurse replaced Dwane Casey in 2018. With the success that we know since the Raptors had won the title in stride…
Assistant coach for 15 years, successively in Milwaukee (2008-2010), Chicago (2010-2015), Orlando (2015-16) and Oklahoma City (2016-2018), Adrian Griffin had just arrived at the time of taking office as Nick Nurse. Since the end of the regular season, he has also been approached by the Pistons, who are also looking for their new “head coach” after the withdrawal… of Dwane Casey.
