Numerous reports and rumours out there that former Raptors assistant Sergio Scariolo is being tapped to be lead assistant to replace Stotts on the Bucks’ bench. Scariolo was thought to be one of two finalists for the Raptors head coach job.
Bucks’ coach already had problems with his assistant Stott (I think) so much that Stott left the organization. Sure, Stott was H before so he may had difficulties readjusting to the new role, but I don’t know if that is a good path for Scariolo
Scariolo would be pretty decent in interim role. He’s extremely well respected in Europe winning championships there. He’s won with Spanish national team. He’s got NBA experience. This might be his best shot at NBA head coach here. Scariolo and Griffin worked together on Raptors’ staff so they have prior working relationship. I think Stott and Griffin had personality issues that’s why there was a blow-up.
