The Charlotte Hornets already have a lengthy list of candidates for their head coach opening, and they've reportedly added two more.

According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, the Hornets have requested permission to interview Brooklyn Nets assistant David Vanterpool and Milwaukee Bucks assistant Charles Lee.

Wojnarowski reported Tuesday that the Hornets had already begun interviewing candidates, starting with two-time NBA Coach of the Year Mike D'Antoni. Charlotte also reportedly requested to speak with assistant coaches, including Golden State's Kenny Atkinson, Milwaukee's Darvin Ham and Dallas' Sean Sweeney.

Vanterpool joined Brooklyn's coaching staff under Steve Nash prior to this season.
