With the Portland Trail Blazers eliminated from the playoffs, they will begin working on a contract extension with Terry Stotts.

The Blazers hold a team option on Stotts' contract for the 16-17 season.

Stotts has compiled a record of 182-146 during his four seasons with the Blazers, and the team has qualified for the playoffs each of the past three seasons.

Stotts finished a close second to Steve Kerr in the NBA's coach of the year vote.
