The agent for Avery Johnson plans to contact the New Orleans Hornets to see if they are interested in obtaining the services of the former Dallas Mavericks coach, sources close to the situation told ProBasketballNews.com on Wednesday.
Johnson is a New Orleans native who has expressed an interest in returning to coaching since being fired by the Dallas Mavericks in 2008. He is represented by Tony Dutt.
In the last 14 months, Johnson declined an offer to become coach of the Memphis Grizzlies and could not come to an agreement to become coach of the Detroit Pistons.
