Suns franchise cornerstone Devin Booker was involved in the search process during the final stages and stamped Ott as his top choice as well, sources said. Ott has been on NBA coaching staffs with the Hawks, Nets, Lakers and Cavaliers since 2012.
I hope that's true.

Underwhelmed, but at least he has a solid resume. If you strip the MSU ties out of it, I think everyone would be fine with it. This isn't like Gregory where your first reaction is WTF? I think Ott will be a solid hire, but still preferred Bryant.
All of this.

Also Suns darling Steve Nash seems to think very highly of Ott.

Of course it’s true, Booker is from Michigan, too. Which is why Ishbia won’t trade him.

All jokes aside, Ott graduated from Penn St before he joined MSU, and from all accounts including Bookers he seems ready, was a finalist for the Hornets gig last year, I'll have the best hopes for him, I hope we are at least fun to watch next year.
Fingers crossed, TOO. As long as we don't change our team colors to green and white, I'll be there right beside you hoping for the best and a fun team to watch. I'll take that any day over what we had to endure last year. Just give me effort. That's all I ask after they lowered the bar so much last year. Our rookies were the brightest spot of the season. Let's hope we have at least one more next season and that we get some high effort players in here with some athleticism and hopefully some length.

I was born in Lansing, Michigan... Miles from MSU. I'm hoping that qualifies me for head of janitorial arts at footprint center.

Arg! OF COURSE they did! So obvious. Just came to the site and saw the title. Oh, well. Will start reading about him and hope he surprises us.
BTW, in spite of my frustrations (really wanted Bryant) upon opening the site, thanks @JeremyG for starting the thread! Now it's time for me to go through my bargaining and acceptance stages.

Jordan Ott has the NBA experience, but can he shake the Spartan label in Phoenix?
Jordan Ott’s Michigan State ties are making Suns fans nervous, but is the concern fair?
