Woj: Nets to name Ime Udoka head coach ‘as early as today.’

Nothing official yet, but Adrian Wojnarowski reported on ESPN’s Get Up Wednesday that Brooklyn could hire suspended Celtics head coach by as early as Wednesday.

“A formal agreement could be reached as soon as today and Ime Udoka could be on the bench by as soon as this road trip on the weekend,” said Woj talking with Mike Greenberg.

“Sean Marks I think he sees in Udoka as someone who commands the respect of that locker room, improves them defensively. He was on Steve Nash’s staff before he went to Boston.”

Udoka took the Celtics to the NBA Finals this season after starting the season 25-25, relying on a stingy defense.
