Hall of Famer Lenny Wilkens says he's open to returning as a coach in the NBA.

Wilkens recently agreed to serve as a consultant to the South Korean National Team.

"They asked me to take part, so I met with their commissioner and the coach and we have had conversations," Wilkens told Sports Illustrated. "We are working on finalizing it right now."

Wilkens retired from coaching in 2005 after 32 seasons in the NBA.

"If the situation was right, I certainly would consider [coaching again]," Wilkens said. "I have not explored it. But Cleveland certainly has a good team. So does Chicago. A few teams are good and need coaches. Let's see how everything shakes out and then we'll see."

I'd love to see him come back for another year so that he could retake the lead from Nelson in total coaching victories.

Once Auerback lost that record they didn't want to cite any longer, like when Knight over took Smith, they started dragging in every YMCA coach who had more.
