UConn's Dan Hurley passed on the Lakers' offer despite being impressed with their compelling case and vision presented by Rob Pelinka and Jeanie Buss.
The Lakers made a significant push for Hurley with a lucrative six-year, $70 million contract offer, aiming to make him one of the NBA's highest-paid coaches.
James Borrego had two in-person meetings with the Lakers, but they pursued Hurley strongly, leading to his decision to remain with UConn.
