Here's an affordable name with NBA experience that will never happen in our lifetime: former Spurs assistant and current coach of the defending back-to-back WNBA champion Aces, Becky Hammon. I think she currently makes ~$750K per year.

Let's be honest with ourselves here: take away the fact that she's a woman and she'd have been given many more opportunities.

Good hire for the UK women's team which is open.

She'd be taking a huge paycut and leaving a professional team for college. I think she gets a chance to be a head coach in the men's game at some point. She's too successful not to.

Here are some names in the Greg Popovich coaching tree: Steve Kerr, Mike Budenholzer, Michael Malone, Ime Udoka, and Monty Williams. If you've watched the NBA Finals in almost any of the past five or so years, you've seen them as the head coach, and three of them won it all.

Scratch that, on merit alone, she's extremely overqualified compared to most college coaches.
