NBA Rumors: Dan Hurley Rejects Lakers' 6-Year, $70M Contract, Will Return to UConn | News, Scores, Highlights, Stats, and Rumors | Bleacher Report

The Los Angeles Lakers have once again been rejected by a high-profile college coach. Two decades after failing in their pursuit of Dukeโ€™s Mike Krzyzewski, the Lakers have also failed to convince UConnโ€™s Dan Hurley to make a leap to the NBA.

 

 

Hurley emerged as the Lakersโ€™ preferred target for their head coach vacancy in recent days, and the franchise reportedly gave him a six-year, $70 million contract offer this past weekend. While Hurley entertained the Lakersโ€™ offer, he ended up deciding to stay with the Huskies.

 

 

โ€œI am humbled by this entire experience,โ€ Hurley said in a statement released by UConn. โ€œAt the end of the day, I am extremely proud of the championship culture we have built at Connecticut. We met as a team before todayโ€™s workout and our focus right now is getting better this summer and connecting as a team as we continue to pursue championships.โ€
