Cleveland Cavaliers<\/a> general manager Mike Gansey has agreed to become the new president of basketball operations for the Philadelphia 76ers<\/a>, sources tell ESPN.<\/p>\n

Gansey, who rose the ranks within the Cavaliers front office since joining in 2011-12, now lands the top executive position in Philadelphia.<\/p>\n

Bob Myers, the four-time NBA championship architect of the dynasty Golden State Warriors<\/a> who now serves as president of sports for Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment, led the search for the 76ers’ new head of basketball operations after ownership made the decision to part ways with Daryl Morey.<\/p>\n

Myers will work closely in partnering with Gansey and assist in his vision for the organization.<\/p>\n

Gansey and Nick U’Ren of the WNBA’s Phoenix Mercury were the finalists for the 76ers’ president job and both had separate final-stage meetings with team ownership this week on the east coast before the decision to hire Gansey was made on Friday, sources said.<\/p>\n

U’Ren has served as the top basketball executive of the Mercury over the last three years, and served multiple front-office titles under Myers during their stints with the Warriors.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
