Tim Griffin of the San Antonio Express-News reports:
It’s been a whirlwind the last several days for Dallas Mavericks’ lead assistant Dwane Casey.
Last week, the Mavericks claimed their first title. Casey helped celebrate with all of his team once they got back to Dallas later in the week.
And Casey also had what appears to be a successful job interview with Toronto general manager Bryan Colangelo.
Enough that the Dallas Morning News is reporting that Casey will be named the Raptors’ new head coach, perhaps as soon as later this afternoon.
Casey interviewed with the Raptors twice over the last several days. He apparently has beaten out Boston lead assistant and former New Jersey head coach Lawrence Frank.
