This directly affects coaching opportunities for Blazers assistants Nate Tibbetts and David Vanterpool, who have interviewed for positions this week. Vogel was a primary candidate to fill the Memphis Grizzlies’ vacancy, so Tibbetts has one less competitor for the job, while Vanterpool interviewed for the job in Orlando, which is now off the table.
