Report: Warriors May Get Majerus

Associated Press

Utah Coach Rick Majerus met with Golden State owner Chris Cohan over the weekend, and could become the Warriors’ new coach, the San Jose Mercury News reported Sunday.

“I think it’s pretty close,” a source told the newspaper. “The only thing is that Rick is notorious for getting cold feet at the last minute.”

The newspaper said Majerus traveled to Oakland to take a look at the Warriors’ new practice facility and arena, both under construction.

Neither Cohan nor Majerus could be reached for comment.

“There are a lot of reports on what might happen and what won’t happen,” said Al Attles, the Warriors’ assistant general manager. “When the times comes everyone will know what we will do. At this point in time we can’t discuss that.”

The Warriors finished last in the Pacific Division with a 30-52 record and fired Coach Rick Adelman on April 28.
