David Fizdale will interview for the Knicks’ head coach position next week

Former Memphis Grizzlies head coach David Fizdale will meet with the Knicks’ front office next week, according to Stefan Bondy.

David Fizdale, considered by some as a leading candidate for the Knicks, is scheduled to interview next week for their vacant coaching position.

The 43-year-old revealed that news to reporters in Oakland on Friday while visiting a buddy, Steve Kerr, at a Warriors practice. Fizdale said he’s also interviewing with the Suns for their vacant position next week.

Fizdale has a strong coaching pedigree, having worked as an assistant under Eric Spoelstra on the Miami Heat’s two most recent championship teams.
