J.B. Bickerstaff reportedly interviewed with David Fizdale for an assistant coach position with the Memphis Grizzlies.

Bickerstaff is a longtime assistant coach in the NBA who was interim head coach for most of this past season with the Houston Rockets.

The Grizzlies hired Fizdale this week from the Miami Heat.

David Fizdale has agreed upon a four-year deal with the Memphis Grizzlies to become their head coach.

The contract includes a team option for the fourth year.

Fizdale was a longtime assistant with the Miami Heat.

James Borrego was the other finalist for the Grizzlies' job.

The Grizzlies like Fizdale's pedigree coming from the Heat as well as tactical abilities and his strength in building relationships with players.

The Memphis Grizzlies have offered their head coaching job to David Fizdale.

Fizdale is currently an assistant coach with the Miami Heat. Fizdale has been an NBA assistant since 2003 with the Golden State Warriors and his tenure with the Heat began in 2008. 

Fizdale has long been considered one of the NBA's most promising future head coaches.

The two sides are working on a contract after Fizdale met with Robert Pera in San Jose.

David Fizdale has progressed to an interview with Robert Pera after his first interview with the Memphis Grizzlies.

The Houston Rockets have broadened their head coaching search beyond Mike D'Antoni, who appeared close to getting the job earlier in the week.

The Rockets have scheduled an interview for Monday with James Borrego.

Borrego is a finalist for the Memphis Grizzlies' job and is currently an assistant coach with the San Antonio Spurs.

Borrego will become the 11th known candidate to interview for the Rockets' opening, joining D'Antoni, Silas, Jeff Hornacek (who took the New York Knicks job), former Cleveland Cavaliers coach David Blatt, Toronto Raptors assistant Rex Kalamian‎, Grizzlies assistant Jeff Bzdelik, Spurs assistant Ettore Messina, TNT analyst Kenny Smith, Los Angeles Clippers assistant Sam Cassell and current Rockets assistant Chris Finch.

The Memphis Grizzlies were hoping to hire Frank Vogel as head coach but the unexpected resignation of Scott Skiles with the Orlando Magic has jeopardized that plan.

The Grizzlies have been most impressed by James Borrego and David Fizdale among the other candidates they've interviewed.

Memphis has also interviewed Patrick Ewing, Nate Tibbetts and Ettore Messina.

The Orlando Magic are optimistic they will be able to hire Frank Vogel as head coach despite competition from the Memphis Grizzlies.

The Orlando Sentinel reported Thursday morning that Vogel has met with the DeVos family that owns the team.

Orlando has been trying to decide between Vogel and Adrian Griffin this week.

Vogel had already established himself as the Grizzlies' top choice by the time the Magic joined the bidding this week.
