Stotts, who has already interviewed for the Lakers’ vacancy, joins a long list of candidates for the Hornets’ job, that includes Bucks assistant Darvin Ham, former Lakers coach Frank Vogel, and two-time NBA Coach of the Year Mike D’Antoni.
Reported by Marc Stein, D’Antoni had found himself to be in a ‘strong position’ for the job due to his experience and ability to connect offensively with LaMelo Ball.
Stotts and the Trail Blazers mutually parted ways last season after their fourth first-round exit in five years.
