After Danny Ainge retired and Brad Stevens moved his way into the Celtics front office, the empty spot on the Celtics bench was sought to be the most wanted job in the league.
And the vouching for the next head coach of the Boston Celtics has already started.
Spotted near the Celtics practice facility by the Boston Globe’s Gary Washburn, is a billboard purchased by Six Star Nutrition speaking to Brad Stevens, the new President of Basketball Operations, to hire Duke Blue Devils women’s head coach and former Celtics assistant Kara Lawson or San Antonio Spurs assistant Becky Hammon.

Stevens has started the process. Per ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, Stevens has began receiving permission to interview assistants around the league, including Clippers assistant Chauncey Billups.

At the moment, it’s unsure if Lawson and Hammon are in the current plans to interview with Stevens and the Celtics.
