Multiple media reports on Wednesday said that Hill will not return as coach of the team and will be offered another position with the team.

An official in the NBA, speaking on condition of anonymity, told The Associated Press that Hill and the club were still negotiating his exit, and it was not clear whether he resigned or was fired.

"In two stints with the Magic, Hill became the winningest coach in team history. He took Orlando to its first playoff appearance in four years this season. Team president Bob Vander Weide said earlier this month he was re-evaluating Hill's status after the quick playoff exit.

The team finished 40-42 before being swept by the Detroit Pistons in the first round.

Some fans have been upset the 59-year-old Hill didn't give rookie J.J. Redick, point guard Travis Diener, and 7-footer Darko Milicic more prominent roles."
