According to ESPN‘s Adrian Wojnarowski, the Memphis Grizzlies are interviewing another potential head coach from a Conference Finals team in Adrian Griffin, the lead assistant on Nick Nurse‘s Toronto Raptors staff.
Griffin, who joined the Raptors in 2018, has been an NBA assistant for the last 11 seasons. His coaching career began in 2008 shortly after his playing career ended, and over the last decade, Adrian developed a reputation as one of the most well-respected assistants across the league. Before joining Nurse’s staff in 2018, Adrian Griffin spent two years as Billy Donovan‘s lead assistant in Oklahoma City, one year in the same capacity with Orlando and five years as a member of Tom Thibodeau‘s Chicago Bulls staff.
