Report: Hornets can interview Lindsey Harding for head coach opening

Lindsey Harding appears to be in demand.

The Charlotte Hornets reportedly were granted permission to interview Stockton Kings head coach and former Sacramento Kings assistant Lindsey Harding for their current head-coaching vacancy, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported Monday, citing sources.

Charlotte had announced on April 3 that current coach Steve Clifford would step down from the role after the season ends, though he would stay on in an advisory role.

Harding recently made history as the first woman and first woman of color to win G League Coach of the Year after leading Stockton to a league-best 24-10 regular-season record.
