What a plot twist

ESPN Sources: The Lakers have had preliminary contact with Hurley and sides are planning to escalate discussions in coming days. Hurley’s been at the forefront of the Lakers’ search from the beginning of the process, even while the organization has done its due diligence interviewing other candidates.

Rob Pelinka and Jeanie Buss are eager to formally discuss their vision with Hurley of marrying his dominant program --- built upon both his tactical acumen and elite player development -- to the storied Lakers’ brand, sources tell ESPN.

@Hndrxx_Free we're back

This is the correct move

I don't keep up with college basketball much but from his interview with Redick, he looks good.

if dan brings his assistant luke murray we're so back, they're offensive geniuses

if he turns down the offer he'll be one of the greatest college coaches ever guaranteed

ya'll remember when the lakers were talking with coach k and getting consultations.. it must've been about hurley

he's a stud and I think he will adapt to the nba game in terms of managing personalities.

from an X and Os standpoint he's elite.

THE Dan Hurley?!

great interview to watch for anyone unfamiliar with Danny.

He's a f***ing grinder.

"Internally at the top, though, that assessment was met with talk of a wide-open process, with some dismissing the Redick talk as the leader as just “noise.”

"Hurley, 51, has often described his ambition to one day coach in the NBA and has expressed to the Lakers a desire to explore the full picture of a partnership with one of basketball's winningest franchises, sources said."

"The Lakers have been committed to making All-NBA forward Anthony Davis a significant part of the conversation on the next head coach and want to make sure that he's aligned with how a new coach plans to feature him on both offense and defense, sources said."

"LeBron James has been impressed with Hurley's sophisticated offensive actions. the possibility of using the 55th overall pick in this month's NBA draft on USC freshman guard Bronny James makes Hurley an even more intriguing candidate".

via Woj

"Beyond the 17th overall pick in this month's draft, the Lakers have a young core of Austin Reaves, Rui Hachimura and Max Christie that management believes can still show even greater improvement under Hurley's coaching, sources said."

friggin insane bron is working this into the deal. I would not be held up by him if I was the lakers and disregard a certain level of his demands

All the JJ news was really a smokescreen lmaoo
