Sources: Lakers preparing massive offer to UConn's Dan Hurley
The Los Angeles Lakers are targeting UConn's Dan Hurley as the franchise's next coach and are preparing a massive, long-term contract offer to bring the back-to-back NCAA national champion to the NBA, sources told ESPN.
IMO this is an absolute best case scenario for the Lakers. Getting a guy like Hurley is perfect for this team. Knows how to work with young players and can coach a team to a championship. I'm excited to see how this unfolds!
I'm hopeful! His offensive scheme reminds me of a modernized motion triangle offense. Lots of movement and flexibility in his sets!
Yeah I won't lie I didn't pay too much attention to him as a coach (though definitely watched UCONN) until all of this. Watching highlights of his team and some of their adjustments etc really shows who he is as a coach and I'm very excited about the idea. Can't wait to see what's in store for 2024-25.
