Bertan’s team will interview the best coach of the NBA G League – a former basketball player of the Belarus national team

It has already been announced that “Hornets” head coach Steve Clifford will resign after the season, but will continue his work in the management of the club.

The “Hornets” team has already started looking for a new head coach. Former American basketball player Lindsay Harding is also among the candidates.

The now 39-year-old Harding was recognized as the best NBA development or G League coach of the year this season.

Under the leadership of Harding, the Stockton “Kings” team won first place in the Western Conference of the NBA G League regular championship with 24 wins and 10 losses.

In the “play-off” tournament, the team led by Harding stopped in the semi-finals, where it lost to the Oklahoma City “Blue” unit.

In 2007, Harding was selected first overall in the Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA) draft. In her career as a basketball player, she has played in clubs in the USA, Lithuania, Turkey and Russia.

In 2015, Hardinga became a citizen of Belarus and represented the women’s basketball team of this country at the European Championship, where she managed to win the fourth place.

Harding publicly criticized the regime of Belarusian dictator Alexander Lukashenko a few years ago.

Harding became the first woman to win the NBA G League season’s best coach award. She succeeded in her debut season.

Previously, he worked for four seasons as an assistant head coach in the NBA club Sacramento “Kings”.

The best in the West… and the entire G!
