FWIW: Kokoškov was an assistant for Quin Snyder both at Missouri and Utah. Had wondered if his phone would ring if Snyder stepped down as Jazz coach. Nash adds another former head coach to his bench who he has a strong relationship with. Igor’s good at player development, too. – 12:34 PM

If the Jazz and Quin Snyder aren’t going to come to a deal, they should do it soon. The longer they wait, the more the highly sought candidates will be gone. Darvin Ham already off the board, sounds like Kenny Atkinson is next. – 2:27 PM

David J. Smith. Good discussion about the Snyder situation. Tim MacMahon: “My informed speculation is that Quin Snyder is going to end up leaving… if that happens, the Jazz would be appreciative of that decision coming sooner than later.” -via Twitter / June 2, 2022

The Hornets, league sources say, would have interest in Snyder if he indeed parts ways with the Jazz following Utah’s third first-round exit in the past four seasons. Very little, beyond that, has seeped out yet about Charlotte’s search. Snyder is expected to meet with Utah-based reporters as early as this week for his annual end-of-season news conference after Jazz general manager Justin Zanik said Friday that there is “no other partner” he would rather have. -via marcstein.substack.com / May 2, 2022

Michigan’s Juwan Howard is known to hold James’ respect after their time together in Miami but is said to be firm in his desire to stay with the Wolverines to coach sons Jace and Jett. Toronto’s Nick Nurse and Snyder — also frequently cited as candidates for the post — are not currently available, so pursuing them (or others under contract) comes with complications. -via marcstein.substack.com / May 2, 2022
