Fizdale? Stackhouse? Charlotte Hornets in market for a coach. Here are some possibilities | Charlotte Observer

With Friday's firing of coach Steve Clifford, here are five potential coaching candidates who are available or could be for Charlotte Hornets interviews:

Dave Fizdale

Fizdale, 43, lasted a little more than a season as coach of the Memphis Grizzlies (50-51 record), after being a highly respected assistant coach with the Miami Heat. Got into some office-politics issues, including some friction with star Marc Gasol. However, he’s decisive and dynamic in a way that wears well as a head coach. Figures to have options, and should be picky in taking his next job.

Stephen Silas
