According to ESPN, former Los Angeles Clippers assistant and Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Tyronn Lue is gaining steam as a potential new head coach for the Rockets.
Lue had his interview with the team yesterday, and the Houston front office is reportedly impressed, though they have yet to speak with Jeff Van Gundy, the other big name on tap for an interview this week.
