The incoming NBA Development League franchise in suburban Dallas, co-owned by Mavericks president of basketball operations Donnie Nelson and scheduled to begin play in the 2010-11 season, has made a bold choice for its first head coach: Nancy Lieberman, according to an ESPN.com report on Wednesday.
Lieberman, currently an ESPN television analyst, would become the first woman in charge of a team in the D-League, which sent 20 players to the NBA last season and is widely regarded as the most scouted league in the world outside of the NBA.
A formal announcement of her hiring could come as early as this week.
