Early last month, Mike Dunleavy stepped down as the head coach of the Clippers, but continued in his role of General Manager. On Tuesday, the team decided they no longer wanted him with the organization in any capacity.
Clippers And GM Mike Dunleavy ‘Have Severed Ties’
Los Angeles and Dunleavy “have severed ties” according to an official release distributed by the team.
The organization has determined that the goal of building a winning team is best served by making this decision at this time. The team has simply not made sufficient progress during Dunleavy’s seven-year tenure. The Clippers want to win now. This transition, in conjunction with a full commitment to dedicate unlimited resources, is designed to accomplish that objective.
Neil Olshey, the current Assistant GM, will takeover Dunleavy’s responsibilities.
