DETROIT — Intensely competitive.
That’s the first thing you hear when it comes to Jerry Stackhouse, the former Detroit Pistons star and current coach of the Toronto Raptors’ G League team who is seen as one of the best young coaches on the market.
The Detroit Pistons are looking for a new coach and head of basketball operations after owner Tom Gores fired Stan Van Gundy on Monday after four seasons.
The organization wants a separate person for front office and coaching jobs, leaving the San Antonio Spurs (Gregg Popovich) and Minnesota Timberwolves (Tom Thibodeau) as the only franchises where one man has both roles.
