Philadelphia 76ers coach Doug Collins will resign from the role at the end of the season, a league source confirmed to ESPN The Magazine's Chris Broussard on Sunday night.

The Sixers picked up the option on Collins' contract for the 2013-14 season in training camp and he said then he wanted to remain with the organization in some capacity when his coaching career was finished.

ESPN.com reported Friday that Collins staying with the organization in a front-office or advisory role was an option if he decides to step down, according to sources close to the situation.

Yahoo! Sports reported Collins' decision to resign earlier Sunday night.

Without Bynum this year he didnt really have a chance to succeed. Overall dissapointing year in Philly.

So they got a lemon and he has to leave?

He does not have to quit. The GM does for signing an injured player that is leaving the team anyway.
