Andrew Wiggin's burner account
ESPN and other sites reporting the Pelicans have asked the Warriors for permission to interview Gentry for their open head coaching position. Warriors have granted that request.
It's been clear from the beginning that Gentry wasn't going to be here very long. He has head coaching aspirations and would make a great coach at his next stop. The concerning part is two fold: 1) If it works out he'll be headed to a Western Conference team, which would suck and 2) this is happening in season which has potential for distraction.
I've always hated that the coaching vacancies have no moratorium like NBA Free Agency. I get that teams like to have their positions filled by the time the draft rolls around, but it can create some havoc. I guess there's really no plausible solution to fix this though.
