The Phoenix Suns have surprisingly fired head coach Frank Vogel after just one season on the job. ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski was the first to report the news.
This comes following a 49-33 season that culminated in a first-round sweep at the hands of the Minnesota Timberwolves in the 2024 NBA Playoffs.
When owner Mat Ishbia refused to commit to Vogel after meeting with the now-ousted head coach late last week, some could see this coming.
For Phoenix, the move comes less than a calendar year after it signed Vogel to a five-year, $31 million contract. To say that Vogel’s only season the desert was a disappointment would be an understatement.
