That's a pretty sexist thing to say, unless you have some specific backup on Matina saying she wants Hammon as the coach. I certainly haven't heard anything about that.
You do realize Hammon just signed a contract to coach the Las Vegas Aces, right? She won't be with the Spurs after this season. Why would the Kings contact the Spurs at all?
Any organization, not just the NBA, would reach out to all past employers and would do extensive background checks on their prospective hires. Well, maybe not the Kings as we saw with the Walton, and to some extent, the Vlade hires.
