Hawks gave Mike Budenholzer permission to talk with the Suns about head-coaching vacancy

As reported by Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, the Atlanta Hawks have given their permission to Mike Budenholzer to speak with the Phoenix Suns about their head-coaching vacancy. Budenholzer has still two years left on his deal with Atlanta and will make around $14 mln during this period. Phoenix is looking for a new head coach and Budenholzer is really appreciated by the team front-office. 

In 2015-2016 season Budenholzer was named coach of the year after leading the Hawks to 60 wins during the regular season.
