Lindsey Harding set to be interviewed by Charlotte Hornets for head coaching role, per reports
cnn.com/2024/04/09/sport/lindsey-harding-interview-charlotte-hornets-stockton-kings-spt-intl/
Quick Glance: Charlotte Hornets Interview Lindsey Harding for Head Coaching Role: Insider
- The Charlotte Hornets have been given the green light to engage with Lindsey Harding, the coach of the G League’s Stockton Kings, for the head coaching position in Charlotte, as confirmed by a league insider on Monday.
- If selected, Harding would make history as the first woman to lead an NBA team as head coach. Recently, Harding was honored as the NBA G League Coach of the Year for guiding the Stockton Kings to an impressive season record of 24-10.
- At 39 years old, Harding was the top pick by the Phoenix Mercury in the 2007 WNBA Draft. She made headlines last year as the sole female head coach in the NBA or G League, debuting against the Santa Cruz Warriors in November 2023.
- Despite the scarcity of women in NBA coaching roles, an increasing number are excelling as player development coaches or serving as second or third assistants.
The Heat say Terry Rozier (neck) has been ruled out of Wednesday night’s Play-In game against Philadelphia.
