The Los Angeles Lakers are considering the acquisition of University of Connecticut's head men's basketball coach, Dan Hurley, for their vacant coaching position. Team and league sources have confirmed that preliminary discussions have taken place between the two parties. Hurley, a two-time NCAA finalist, is reportedly a leading candidate for the Lakers job. The coach has expressed interest in potentially coaching in the NBA and has reportedly indicated to the Lakers his willingness to explore a potential union. The Lakers are preparing to make a major offer to Hurley, as confirmed by a person with knowledge of the situation. Vice President of Basketball Operations and General Manager Rob Pelinka and Governor Jeanie Buss are eager to discuss their vision for the team with Hurley. Hurley, 51, has a strong basketball pedigree. His father, Bob Hurley Sr., is a Hall of Fame high school basketball coach, and his brother, Bobby, is currently the head coach at Rhode Island.
