Mat Ishbia has been very aggressive as the owner of the Suns organization since officially taking over in 2023. Perhaps the same level of persistence that has been had with the acquisition of players will aid him well here.

The Phoenix Suns failed to make the playoffs for the first time since the 2019-20 season. Per sources, the Suns have been pursing Bob Myers.

Duane Rankin of the Arizona Republic reported that while CEO Josh Bartelstein and team president and general manager James Jones have worked together with Ishbia on basketball decisions, the owner has been "pushing hard" to hire former Golden State Warriors GM Bob Myers as the Suns' new lead executive.
