Kevin Ollie:

I’d love to see the Suns take a run at Bill Self, Tom Izzo, and John Calipari, but I imagine those guys will all say “thanks, but no thanks.” Assuming that’s the case, Kevin Ollie would be an amazing choice. Solid NBA player who is a proven winner at the highest level in college. He’s gotten his teams to outperform expectations. He’s not a wizard strategically, but he is just good enough in enough areas to be an exciting option.
