Suns general manager James Jones issued a statement Saturday following the dismissal of head coach Monty Williams.
The decision to move on from Williams came just two days after Phoenix’s playoff exit, which came at the hands of the Nuggets in Thursday’s Game 6.
ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported earlier Saturday that the decision to part ways with Williams stemmed from new Suns owner Matt Ishbia, but instead it was Jones who voiced Saturday’s statement, and indicated the decision was his own.
