Magic must give coach Steve Clifford a contract extension | Commentary
Orlando Magic Coach Steve Clifford didn't have much to smile about this season. (Stephen M. Dowell / Orlando Sentinel)When I asked Magic president of basketball operations Jeff Weltman that very question during Wednesday’s end-of-the-season Zoom call with reporters, Weltman refused to answer.
Weltman understandably explained that it’s his policy not to publicly discuss contract matters involving coaches and players, but it sure sounded like he believes Clifford is the right coach to lead this young team through the upcoming rebuild.
