The Suns reportedly are coming after a member of the Warriors' coaching staff.

Phoenix has offered Golden State assistant coach/player development Willie Green a lead assistant coaching position, league sources told Shams Charania of The Athletic.

Green -- who played 12 seasons in the NBA from 2003 to 2015 -- is currently in his third season with the franchise.

The 37-year old played for new Suns head coach Monty Williams in New Orleans during the 2010-11 season.

With the Warriors currently playing in the NBA Finals, it's unclear when Green has to make a decision.
