According to recent reporting from NBA insider Marc Stein, the Brooklyn Net’s plan to hire Ime Udoka as the club’s next head coach may be on pause. Stein stated there have been some “strong” opponents to the move within the league.
Last week Brooklyn and former head coach Steve Nash agreed to part ways and shortly thereafter the club was linked to suspended Celtics coach Ime Udoka. Despite currently serving a one-year suspension for an improper workplace relationship, Boston reportedly would allow Udoka to leave and take another head coaching job elsewhere.
Although Brooklyn’s aims to hire Udoka have been widely reported, the club has yet to officially announce anything. Reports of possible disagreement internally would help explain the Nets relative silence here. Interim coach Jacque Vaughn has been leading the club in the absence of any further changes on the sidelines.
