Former Warriors president agrees to interim role with 76ers
After 12 seasons with the Golden State Warriors and a brief broadcasting career, Bob Myers is set to join the 76ers front office in an interim role.
The Philadelphia 76ers made waves around the league Tuesday evening, agreeing to part ways with their president of basketball operations Daryl Morey. Although the 76ers pulled off an upset in the first round of the NBA playoffs against the Boston Celtics, it wasn't enough for Morey to keep his job another season. In six seasons with Philadelphia, the 76ers were 270-212 under Morey.
After Morey's departure, the team acted quickly to bring on former Golden State Warriors general manager and president of basketball operations Bob Myers. According to Shams Charania of ESPN, Myers will lead the search for a new head executive while overseeing the franchise in the meantime. This will be Myers' first job with an NBA team since departing the Warriors organization after 12 seasons at the end of the 2022-23 campaign.
Since then, Myers has served as an analyst on ESPN. This article originally appeared on Warriors Wire: Former Warriors president agrees to interim role with 76ers
