Ben Sullivan Out of Blazers Race

Ben Sullivan, Houston Rockets’ offensive assistant and Portland alum, is officially off the Blazers’ shortlist for their head coach search — a move that signals he’ll stay with the Rockets as they pivot their offensive strategy.

Sullivan’s departure ends speculation about a potential Portland return, but his continued role in Houston’s offense could be pivotal as the Rockets weigh coaching changes amid fan pressure for offensive firepower.
