Serge Ibaka might soon have a new Hall of Fame coach.

Hakeem Olajuwon has reached out to Thunder coach Scott Brooks to determine if and perhaps when he might be able to work with Ibaka on his offensive game. Olajuwon’s representatives contacted Brooks, who teamed with the former Rockets star, via text on Tuesday.

Olajuwon originally expressed his interest in working with Ibaka to Fox Sports last month, saying the Thunder’s runner-up for Defensive Player of the Year “needs it.”

Brooks on Tuesday told The Oklahoman that he loves the idea.

“I played with Hakeem for three years,” Brooks said of his stint with Olajuwon and the Rockets from 1992-95. “He’s one of the best to ever play the game. Anytime you can get players that played at a high level that can share their insight, you have to take advantage of it.”
