That was a telling scene.
According to league sources, Adrian Griffin’s front-office presence rose over the final week and a half of his stint as head coach of the Milwaukee Bucks.
General manager Jon Horst and assistant general manager Milt Newton began to observe practices and shootarounds. Observing is not unusual; most CEOs do so from a distance while standing near their workplace.
However, insiders suggest that the Bucks’ front office has recently begun to raise eyebrows among coaching staff and players while witnessing practice sessions from the sidelines.
Gryphon was sacked approximately a week later after coaching 43 games and leading the team to a 30-13 record, which ranks second in the league.
