Juwan Howard drew interest from the Los Angeles Lakers, but Michigan's head coach declined serious talks about their coaching vacancy, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports.

"The Lakers never made a formal offer to Howard, sources said, but it's clear that if he had expressed an interest in the job, his candidacy would've moved quickly to that stage," Wojnarowski wrote.
