Calkins: Blazers Interim Coach Kaleb Canales Mum On Future

Matt Calkins of The Columbian reports that Portland Trail Blazers interim coach Kaleb Canales did not want to take questions about his future as a potential head coach for the team during a pre-Draft media availability on Thursday. --------------------------- Kaleb Canales addressed the media Thursday for the first time since the Trail Blazers hired new general manager Neil Olshey, who called Canales the "in-house favorite" to be Portland's head coach during his first interaction with the press. Canales, however, declined answering questions pertaining to his coaching future, imploring reporters to focus on the pre-draft workouts and save those queries for another time. Asked when that other time might be, Canales again redirected the focus toward the workouts. --------------------------- Despite his statement of support for Canales, new Blazers GM Neil Olshey plans to conduct a full coaching search after the 2012 NBA Draft. -- Ben Golliver | benjamin.golliver@gmail.com | Twitter
