Wojnarowski added that the Suns' search has thus far been "focused on securing a candidate with a successful head coaching resume in the NBA."
Fizdale previously served as head coach of the Memphis Grizzlies during the 2016-17 season, where they made the playoffs before falling to the San Antonio Spurs in the first round.
The Grizzlies fired Fizdale last November after a 7-12 start, bringing his regular-season record with Memphis to 50-51.
The Suns finished this season with the NBA's worst record (21-61) and haven't made the playoffs since the 2009-10 season.
