NBA Rumors: Multiple Nets Officials Interested In Lakers Assistant Phil Handy

Head coach Frank Vogel and his staff have done a tremendous job in their first season with the Los Angeles Lakers, leading the franchise to its 17th NBA title.

Assistant Phil Handy has been one of the main pieces of Vogel’s crew, bringing in championship pedigree thanks to his time with the title-winning Cleveland Cavaliers and Toronto Raptors teams in the past.

It has been reported that new Brooklyn Nets head coach Steve Nash is targeting Handy as a potential addition to his staff. And SNY’s Ian Begley reports that the interest in Handy, who has close ties with the franchise’s star Kyrie Irving, is shared across the Nets franchise.
