Clippers May Target Scott Brooks
It is not immediately clear whether a strong crop of out-of-work coaches — such as Mike D’Antoni, Nate McMillan and the recently fired Stan Van Gundy — might influence the Clippers’ call on (Vinny) Del Negro. But NBA coaching sources said Thursday the Clippers, should they decide to move in another direction, would probably target two coaches who aren’t free agents to see if there’s any shot at prying one of them loose: Oklahoma City’s Scott Brooks and New Orleans’ Monty Williams.
Sources say Brooks’ negotiations with the Thunder on a contract extension are unlikely to resume until after the playoffs, with Oklahoma City about to enter a Western Conference finals showdown with the San Antonio Spurs.
