Austin Ainge will leave his role as assistant general manager of the Boston Celtics to take over as president of basketball operations for the Utah Jazz. With 17 years of experience in the Celtics front office, Ainge emphasizes the potential and opportunity at the Jazz, describing this move as a natural progression in his career. The younger Ainge will work alongside Justin Zanik in a collaborative effort to enhance the team, alongside his father Danny Ainge, who serves as the team's CEO.
Ownership is awesome and it's just kind of the next progression of my career. Kind of done a lot in Boston and we've had a lot of success over the years.
It's go-time for us: [Head coach] Will [Hardy] is locked in long term and I've known Austin for a really long time, and he's the next, young executive stud.
