Golden State Warriors assistant coach Jarron Collins interviewed for the Memphis Grizzlies' head coaching vacancy on Sunday, league sources told ESPN's Ramona Shelburne.
Collins joined the Warriors in 2014 as a player development coach and was promoted to an assistant under Steve Kerr just over a year later.
As a player, he completed 10 seasons in the Association, playing for the Utah Jazz, Phoenix Suns, Los Angeles Clippers, and Portland Trail Blazers after being selected 52nd overall in 2001.
Memphis also reportedly interviewed Jazz assistant Alex Jensen recently.
The Grizzlies fired former head coach J.B. Bickerstaff following the 2018-19 season after the team finished with a 33-49 record and failed to reach the playoffs.
