I don't even know who they've been interviewing. Would be a super interesting direction, especially with the two top-8 picks
'23 Historical Draft: Orlando Magic.

PG: Terry Porter (90-91) / Steve Francis (00-01)
SG: Joe Dumars (92-93) / Jeff Hornacek (91-92) / Jerry Stackhouse (00-01)
SF: Brandon Roy (08-09) / Walter Davis (78-79)
PF: Terry Cummings (84-85) / Paul Millsap (15-16)
C: Chris Webber (00-01) / Ralph Sampson (83-84) / Andrew Bogut (09-10)

It would be good for her to get a head coaching gig, but I’d like to see her go to a more stable franchise.  Going to the Magic just means lots of losses.

I initially posted this as news that they had hired her, but re-read the tweet and realized my mistake.  Here's hoping she gets some gig soon.

I actually think that Pops would let her take the reins when he retires as HC of Spurs.   TWT.

Dont think it will be up to Pops once that happens

He can only recommend

Imo ... a women college or wnba HC..who has had success/won multiple titles has a better shot to be a NBA head coach imo

Like Lawson in a few years

Hiring Hammons like any other assistant coach is a risk.

Disagree..if that was the case Pop would have told her to go get that experience. He is grooming her to take over from him.

It wouldn’t be the worst spot tho.  The Magic have their limitations, but it’s not terribly difficult to make the playoffs in the East, and expectations would be low for at least the first year given their recent sell-off.

Once Pop retires I think Becky would be a shoo-in for the Spurs job. That would be a good environment for her. If she's willing to wait.
Any odd typos are because I suck at typing on an iPhone :D
