The NBA coaching carousel is in full swing, with teams like the Lakers and Cavaliers looking to fill their head coaching vacancies. The Lakers, who were recently rejected by Dan Hurley, are now turning their attention to James Borrego, a former head coach of the Hornets and current assistant with the Pelicans. Borrego is set to meet with the Cavaliers about their coaching vacancy and is also back in the mix for the Lakers job.
Meanwhile, Darvin Ham is returning to Milwaukee to serve as the lead assistant on Doc Rivers’ staff. Ham previously worked as the lead assistant for the Bucks under Mike Budenholzer. Greg Buckner, a former Cavaliers assistant, is also joining Rivers’ staff in Milwaukee. Budenholzer, on the other hand, is bringing in former University of Washington coach Mike Hopkins to his staff in Phoenix.
As teams continue to shuffle their coaching staffs, it will be interesting to see how these new hires impact the upcoming NBA season. Stay tuned for more updates as the coaching carousel continues to turn.
