The Los Angeles Lakers have locked onto UConn head men’s basketball coach Dan Hurley to become their newest head coach. In fact, Hurley and his agent are traveling to meet with the Lakers, who are prepared to offer him a ‘lucrative’ long-term contract on Friday, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.
