AP.org --SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -- A person with knowledge of the situation says Jerry Sloan is stepping down as head coach of the Utah Jazz.
The person told The Associated Press on Thursday that longtime assistant Phil Johnson also will resign. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the resignations have not yet been formally announced.
Salt Lake City television station KSL first reported the pending resignations.
The team has scheduled a 3 p.m. news conference Thursday for what it called a significant announcement.
The 68-year-old Sloan is the longest-tenured head coach in any of the four major sports.
