David Fizdale Fired as Grizzlies Coach After Clashes with Marc Gasol


RadioOnFire.com - Memphis Grizzlies head coach David Fizdale was fired on Monday, November 27. This comes after Fizdale refused to put All-Star center Marc Gasol back in the game during the third quarter of Sunday night's game against the Nets, which they ultimately lost. Following the game, Gasol reportedly headed to the locker room, shaking his head and saying "I don't know."



An NBA executive anonymously told CBS sports, "It's not like people in the league didn't know that Marc and Fiz weren't speaking or getting along." It was revealed that the decision to fire Fizdale was made by Grizzlies management on Sunday night.

Interim coach J.B. Bickerstaff will reportedly fill in as head coach for the remainder of the year.
