Larry Brown says he was close to signing with Pallacanestro Cantù
Brown was not signed because Cantù thought he did not have enough international experience
Former NBA and NCAA head coach Larry Brown said that he was close to penning a deal in Italian Serie A with Pallacanestro Cantù.
Brown recently coached SMU in NCAA. Cantù hired Rimas Kurtinaitis as head coach.
Per Kansas City, Brown recently had feelers from an overseas team.
“I almost took a job in Italy. It was really a great opportunity but they didn’t think I had enough international experience,” he said of a team in Cantu. “I kinda got tickled by that (reasoning),” he added, laughing, “but it was OK. I’ll land on my feet.”
