If there is one thing the betting odds on who will be the next head coach of the Celtics show, it’s that there is no clear frontrunner for the job.
Nets assistant coach Ime Udoka has the best odds to become the Celtics’ next head coach on BetOnline. However, Udoka’s odds are listed at +550, giving an implied probability of just 15.4 percent.
The Celtics are seeking permission to interview Udoka, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported Wednesday.
Udoka joined the Nets’ coaching staff this season when Steve Nash became the team’s head coach. He spent the year prior as an assistant with the 76ers under Brett Brown and was an assistant under Gregg Popovich in San Antonio for seven seasons prior.
