Former players Stackhouse, Ivey, plus Lakers' Jordan Ott reportedly interview for Hornets job

The Charlotte Hornets continue to cast a wide net in their search for a new coach who can help turn around a franchise that has not made the playoffs since 2016.

Add former NBA players turned coaches Jerry Stackhouse and Royal Ivey to the mix, along with Lakers assistant Jordan Ott, according to reports.

Stackhouse is a former All-Star who spent 18 seasons in the NBA and had been coaching at Vanderbilt for the past five years (he was fired last March). Before taking the job with the Commodores, Stackhouse was an NBA assistant coach with the Memphis Grizzlies and the Toronto Raptors, plus he was the head coach of the 905 Raptors in the G-Leauge.
