Terry Porter is expected to be interviewed by the Suns for a second time later next week, according to The Associated Press.

Porter worked as an assistant coach for the Pistons this season, and the team was eliminated in Game Six of the Eastern Conference Finals by the Celtics on Friday night.

He was the lead assistant for Flip Saunders during the past two seasons and coached the Bucks from 2003-2005.

General Manager Steve Kerr played with Porter during their active playing days and has been looking for a head coach ever since Mike D'Antoni bolted for New York.
