Cheeks to Memphis?

The Memphis Commercial Appeal is reporting that former Sixer Lionel Hollins, now an assistant with the Milwaukee Bucks, will be named Marc Iavaroni’s successor this weekend. Iavaroni is also a former Sixer.

The newspaper also reports that Hollins, 55, plans to bring with him as an assistant, former Sixers head coach Maurice Cheeks.

Griz assistant coach Johnny Davis, another former Philly coach, will take over temporarily for the next two games, as Memphis plays tonight at New York tonight and Saturday at home against New Jersey.
