Dan Hurley broke his silence. <\/p>\n
Hours after he decided to spurn the Lakers\u2019 head-coaching offer to stay with UConn, Hurley briefly explained his reasoning. <\/p>\n
\u201cI am humbled by this entire experience,\u201d Hurley said in a statement. \u201cAt the end of the day, I am extremely proud of the championship culture we have built at Connecticut. We met as a team before today\u2019s workout and our focus right now is getting better this summer and connecting as a team as we continue to pursue championships.\u201d <\/p>\n
Hurley, who has led the Huskies to back-to-back national championships, was offered a six-year, $70 million contract by the Lakers, according to ESPN\u2019s Adrian Wojnarowski. <\/p>\n
But Hurley, 51, is motivated to lead the first team to three straight NCAA championships since John Wooden\u2019s UCLA teams won seven straight from 1966-73, according to the report. <\/p>\n
\u201cAs swept away as Hurley became by the Lakers courtship and vision for him, he ultimately couldn\u2019t walk away from a chance to make history and pursue a third straight NCAA title,\u201d Wojnarowski wrote on X on Monday.\u00a0\u201cEven before Lakers talks, Hurley already had a UConn offer to become one of highest-paid NCAA coaches and those talks will continue, per sources.\u201d<\/p>\n
Hurley\u2019s decision now leaves the Lakers scrambling. <\/p>\n
Two candidates that they might now pursue are ex-NBA player and current media personality JJ Redick, who emerged as an early front-runner for the job before news of interest in Hurley arose, and Hornets assistant James Borrego. <\/p>\n
The Lakers are coming off a disappointing season in which they were eliminated in five games by the Nuggets in the first round of the playoffs. <\/p>\n
There is also uncertainty regarding LeBron James\u2019 future, as he can opt-out of his contract this offseason. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
