Good Thursday Morgan,
Orange you glad you’re back in studio?
I know, kinda corny
Bare with me. It’s still too early for my brain to think of something more clever
But I’m glad you’re back
@WDSUMorgan
Thanks to everyone who's followed Pelicans coaching situation this weekend via all our @wdsu platforms
Didn't think I'd be spending early Saturday AM with @WDSUMorgan 🤪
MUCH MORE on Willie Green firing, James Borrego in tonight on 'Game On'
Our guest: @FearTheBrown
The #Pelicans have relieved Willie Green of his duties as head coach, it was announced today by Executive Vice President of Basketball Operations Joe Dumars.
Associate Head Coach James Borrego has been named interim head coach.
“After careful evaluation, we have made the difficult decision to make a change at head coach,” stated Dumars. “I have the utmost respect for Willie Green, and I’m sincerely appreciative of his contributions to the Pelicans organization and the New Orleans community. We wish him and his family all the best in the future.”
“As I have stated, Joe Dumars is in charge of basketball operations decisions, and as one of the best basketball minds in the business, I trust him to make the right decisions for our franchise,” said Pelicans Governor Gayle Benson.
“I have tremendous admiration and respect for Willie Green, and I truly appreciate all he has done for our organization over the last few years. This is a tough business and these are difficult decisions. My expectation is to be a winning team that competes for championships, and I remain steadfast in our commitment to building a championship-caliber organization for our players, partners, and above all, our fans.”
