Where is your optimism on seeing a woman coaching in the NBA sometime in the next five to 15 years? Candace Parker: I have high optimism with that. Organizations are already interviewing, and I think they’re going to start hiring. I think if I were to wager, which I’m not — I repeat WNBA and NBA, I’m not wagering a bet! But if I were to wager a bet, I would say (Pelicans assistant coach) Teresa Weatherspoon is probably the next in line, in my opinion, of someone that is able to do it. I think there’s a number of women that are capable, but it’s who’s going to be the first? That will set the standard for the rest. The hiring of Jeff Saturday (by the NFL’s Indianapolis Colts) actually increases my optimism that it will happen in the next five years.
