According to Los Angeles Times’ Broderick Turner, the Utah Jazz head coach Quin Snyder has become less interested in the Los Angeles Lakers head coaching job because of how the team handled previous coach Frank Vogel’s firing.

“Snyder, who is known for having very good offensive sets and a solid defensive foundation, has led the Jazz to the playoffs for the sixth consecutive season,” Turner wrote. “He was an assistant with the Lakers while on the staff of coach Mike Brown in 2011-2012. Not only is Snyder under contract with the Jazz for at least one more season, people not authorized to speak publicly on the matter said he has become less interested in the Lakers’ job because of how the Vogel firing was handled.”
