The New York Knicks issued a statement after the team’s branding consultant, Steve Stoute, went on ESPN’s First Take and discussed the team’s coaching decisions.

On Tuesday morning, Stoute told ESPN’s First Take that “there had to be a change” in firing former president Steve Mills. He also implied that replacing Mills with Scott Perry means that the franchise will hire a new coach.

“Any decisions regarding the operations of the team will be made by the new President of the New York Knicks,” the team said in a statement.

An additional statement from Stoute released by the team said that “in my excitement to defend the Knicks on live TV today, I inadvertently insinuated about Knicks personnel.”
