Dan Hurley Rejects Lakers' Six-Year, $70M Offer to Stay at UConn in Storrs
Jun 10, 2024, 05:40 PM
Dan Hurley has decided to remain as the head coach of the University of Connecticut (UConn) men's basketball team in Storrs, rejecting a six-year, $70 million offer from the Los Angeles Lakers. Hurley, who has led UConn to two consecutive national championships, will continue to pursue a third straight title with the Huskies. The decision comes after Hurley met with the Lakers' management on Friday night but ultimately concluded that staying at UConn was the right move for his career. The Lakers' offer would have made Hurley one of the highest-paid coaches in the NBA. This decision is seen as a significant win for UConn, as they retain their successful coach amid a strong push from an NBA franchise.
