NBA Notes | Report: Suns' D'Antoni wants to lead Bulls

PHOENIX --

Mike D'Antoni has told John Paxson he wants to be the Chicago Bulls' next coach, according to sources.

Whether Paxson has the same wish remains to be seen after the Bulls' general manager spent time with the Suns' coach in Phoenix.

D'Antoni has two years and $8.5 million remaining on his Suns deal, one reason Phoenix general manager Steve Kerr initially said he wouldn't fire the former coach of the year. -- Chicago Tribune
