Overview
- Philadelphia placed Myers in interim control and set a goal to name a new president before next month’s draft.
- Reporting links Atlanta executive Onsi Saleh and Timberwolves boss Tim Connelly to the opening, though both would need team permission to interview.
- Other names raised early include assistant GM Jameer Nelson, team consultant Neil Olshey, and Thunder executive Vince Rozman, who previously worked in Philadelphia.
- Draymond Green’s comments Saturday framed Myers as a long‑time foil to Morey, adding heat to a storyline that sits beside standard search updates.
- The incoming leader inherits a strong core and sizable deals for Joel Embiid and Paul George, which tightens short‑term flexibility and heightens the value of drafting and development.
