The Associated Press reports The Suns have fired coach Scott Skiles after just over two years on the job, and will make the announcement at a 7 p.m. ET press conference, Arizona Republic writer Bob Young said on ESPN Radio today.

Neither Suns president Bryan Colangelo nor Skiles could be reached for comment by the Repiublic, but Skiles did not coach the team Saturday and Colangelo said that he was involved in a meeting to deal with a personal issue.

Assistant Frank Johnson coached the team in practice, and will take over for the remainder of the season, a club source indicated to the Republic.
