University of Connecticut coach Dan Hurley is reportedly being considered for the head coaching position of the Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers are looking to turn their struggling team around and end their playoff drought since the 2020 season, and Hurley’s success in leading UConn to two consecutive NCAA D-I National Championships may make him a strong candidate.
In an interview on “The Pat McAfee Show,” Golden State Warriors point guard Chris Paul expressed his admiration for Hurley’s coaching style and predicted that he would earn the respect of the Lakers players if he were to become their head coach. Paul specifically noted how players respond positively to Hurley during games.
Hurley took over a struggling UConn team that had missed the NCAA Men’s Tournament for two years and led them to a championship victory in his first season as head coach. The Lakers are hoping that Hurley can bring the same success to their team and lead them to the NBA Finals.
