Cavaliers To Name Byron Scott New Head Coach
on Thursday, according to a source close to the situation.
The Cavaliers and Scott are finishing the details of a contract that could make him LeBron James’ next coach.
Scott’s agent, Brian McInerney, said in an e-mail to The Associated Press that Scott has agreed to become Cleveland’s next coach.
Cleveland settled on Scott, 49, after strongly considering Los Angeles Lakers assistant coach Brian Shaw, who impressed the Cavaliers during interviews earlier this week.
This would be the third head coaching job for Scott, who led the New Jersey Nets to consecutive NBA Finals appearances in 2002 and 2003.
Scott, who coached the Nets from 2001 to 2004, was named coach of the year in 2008 after leading the New Orleans Hornets to a surprising 56-win season. He coached the Hornets from 2004 to 2010 and has a 352-355 career record.
