Myers ultimately turned the offer down and also just left the Golden State Warriors.
Monumental Basketball is moving full speed ahead in the Michael Winger Era. But it was reported that the organization wanted to see what then-Golden State Warriors General Manager Bob Myers wanted to do.
Earlier this week, Myers resigned from the Warriors. And today, according to Kris Pursianen of WFUV-FM, Monumental offered Myers a job with a salary of about $15 million per year to run the front office and the Washington Wizards’ overall strategy.
Knicks added their Perry replacement long ago. They were not blindsided by him leaving or anything of the sort.
Heard from several sources that Myers turned down an offer in the ballpark of $15 million/yr to lead the Washington Wizards – he won’t be taking a side-gig with NYK. https://t.co/5e1a9fURBT

Ultimately, if Myers was offered the job, he turned it down. Since Myers left the Warriors, it seems like he is more likely to take a job in the corporate world outside of sports for the time being. But you can’t blame Monumental and the Wizards for at least trying to see if he was interested.
How do you feel about Washington reportedly making an offer (or perhaps even talking) to Myers? Let us know in the comments!
