Maybe one day Penny Hardaway will be head coach of the Orlando Magic. But that day will not be today.
Hardaway - after interviewing with the Magic for their head coaching vacancy and emerging as a “serious candidate” - went on Instagram to say he will remain head coach of the Memphis Tigers.
“One day in the future I would love to coach in the NBA, and wouldn’t that be great if it was with the Orlando Magic. But today isn’t that day,” Hardaway said. “Today I’m here with my players, with the fans, with the city, working as hard as I can to try to bring us a national championship.
