Kerr leaving Suns

Phoenix Suns general manager Steve Kerr is stepping down from his post with the organization.

Owner Robert Sarver asked Kerr to take a 10 percent pay cut, something he wasn’t willing to do.

Sarver has long been known as a thrifty spender, making him public enemey No. 1 in the Phoenix area.

Despite the team’s success in recent years, some feel the Suns could have gone farther if Sarver was more willing to open up his checkbook.

Kerr was also angry that Sarver was unwilling to give out raises to coaches and scouts with the team.
