Surprising report emerges about Frank Vogel’s job status

Frank Vogel could be coaching for his job in the Phoenix Suns’ game against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday night.

The Suns have lost the first three games of their first-round playoff series against the Timberwolves by double digits. Ahead of Game 4 on Sunday, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported that Vogel’s job “very much may be in jeopardy” despite the coach being in his first season with Phoenix.

“There’s an increasing belief around the league that Frank Vogel’s job is in peril if this team loses, especially as abruptly as they might in a sweep and as dispirited as they looked in Game 3,” Wojnarowski said. “When you have this kind of payroll and these kinds of expectations, you’ve got to not only show more in the first round, you’ve gotta get out of the first round. Losing in 6 in the second round cost Monty Williams his job.”
