PHOENIX (AP) — A person with knowledge of the situation says the Phoenix Suns have hired agent Lon Babby to head the team’s basketball operations.

The person, who asked not to be identified because the official announcement has not been made, told The Associated Press that Babby will be introduced at a news conference at US Airways Center on Tuesday.

Until his move to the front office, Babby represented the Suns’ newly acquired Hedo Turkoglu and is the former agent of Phoenix’s other recent addition, Josh Childress.

Babby emerged in recent days as the leading contender in Suns owner Robert Sarver’s search for a replacement for general manager Steve Kerr, who stepped down at the end of June and has returned to his previous role of NBA analyst for TNT.
