If Derek Fisher turns down Phil Jackson, it’s possible another ex-Laker could be the Knicks’ next coach.
Rick Fox revealed in an interview with NBC Sports Radio that he is a candidate for the Knicks opening.
“I’ve been a candidate for a while and what I’m comfortable communicating is that there’s really nothing for me to do,” Fox said Monday. “Phil has expressed his interest, and the patience for him discovering who is right for that job is left in his court.”
Fox, an analyst on NBA TV and SiriusXM NBA Radio, expressed his desire to coach the Knicks a couple of weeks ago. He won three championships playing for Jackson with the Lakers and knows the ins and outs of the triangle offense.
