Michigan basketball's Juwan Howard reportedly a possible candidate for LA Lakers job .​

Despite the NBA play-in tournament and playoffs beginning in the next few days, the Los Angeles Lakers will suck up plenty of oxygen in the world of basketball.

And perhaps Michigan basketball coach Juwan Howard will get caught in that cyclone.

According to Shams Charania, the Athletic's chief NBA news-breaker, Howard is one name to watch as the Lakers look for a new head coach.

The Lakers have reportedly dismissed coach Frank Vogel — who led them to an NBA championship just 18 month ago — after LA missed the postseason all together this season. Charania reports that current Raptors coach Nick Nurse, who led Toronto the NBA title the season before the Lakers won and is preparing to play Philadelphia in the first round of this year's playoffs, is among LA's top choices.



"Over the next several weeks, expect several other candidates to emerge, including University of Michigan coach Juwan Howard, who interviewed for the opening in 2019," Charania wrote.

11-10 overall

includes 2 close home wins versus MAC teams and a home loss to one MAC team (Central Michigan)

5-5 league record and destroyed today.

Even his biggest supporters here have to be ready to admit they were wrong.

He in year 4

he made the sweet 16 the past 2 seasons including a final 4 2 years ago.

not many coaches can say they have achieved that

considering the recruits he had coming in, and the buildup of the savior arriving on campus, still a major disappointment.
Probably can credit Martelli for the early success.
Now that the training wheels are off ..............

Him and Calipari should team up at some High School

Before I responded, had to see if this was an old post.

WHAT?

And should never have been dancing last year to begin

18-15
11-10
Two year run. 29-25

Don't think Michigan fans think he's the answer right now

Howard was suspended for the remainder of the regular season on Feb. 21, one day after he struck Wisconsin assistant coach Joe Krabbenhoft in the head during the postgame handshake line. He was also fined $40,000.

Feb-14th Michigan at Wisconsin should be interesting
