After five years as part of the Sacramento Kings coaching staff, Lindsey Harding is running as a strong candidate for the position of head coach of the Charlotte Hornets, a team that, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN will interview you for such vacancy.
Arriving at the California capital organization in the summer of 2019, Harding has been taking steps forward in the franchise to the point of taking over the bench of the Stockton Kings of the G League in 2023. She couldn’t have done better, as she was voted Coach of the Year and led her boys to the Western Conference finals.
At 39 years old, he now has the option of being in the fight to coach the North Carolina team, which has received permission from the Kings to carry out the aforementioned interview. Let us remember that Harding was number 1 in the 2007 draft and that she played up to nine seasons in the WNBA before moving to the technical side of basketball.
To make this vacancy a reality, the Hornets’ coach, Steve Clifford, decided to stop being the head of the locker room in mutual agreement with the team, to which he will continue to be linked through a management position.
