The Houston Rockets don't appear to be in any rush to find a new head coach.

The Rockets will reportedly interview Orlando Magic lead assistant Adrian Griffin on Monday, the Houston Chronicle's Jonathan Feigen reports. Houston will also reportedly interview San Antonio Spurs assistant James Borrego next week.

Houston has interviewed a number of candidates over the past few days, with Philadelphia 76ers assistant Mike D'Antoni, Toronto Raptors assistant Rex Kalamian, Memphis Grizzlies assistant Jeff Bzdelik, and Charlotte Hornets assistant Stephen Silas reportedly receiving meetings.

Since retiring as a player, Griffin has been an assistant coach for eight seasons, spending time with the Milwaukee Bucks, Chicago Bulls, and the Magic.
