The Atlanta Hawks have gone more than two weeks without a head coach after the organization and Mike Budenholzer mutually parted ways. With the looks of things, that vacancy might not last much longer.
ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported Philadelphia 76ers assistant Lloyd Pierce has become the focus of the Hawks’ coaching search. Wojnarowski said Pierce, who just finished his fifth season in Philadelphia, “met with Atlanta Hawks officials for a third time on Friday” and that “a formal offer is expected as soon as today.”
Pierce spoke to Philly.com Wednesday after his second interview with the Hawks.
