Reggie Theus could be a phone call away from returning to the NBA, this time as a coach.

Theus said Thursday night he was "flattered" to be on the short list of candidates for the head coaching job of the Bobcats.

Charlotte GM Bernie Bickerstaff confirmed earlier Thursday that Theus was among five candidates the Bobcats have interviewed. The others are former Hornets and Cavaliers coach Paul Silas, former NBA player and assistant coach Mario Elie, longtime Grizzlies assistant Lionel Hollins and former Heat coach Stan Van Gundy.
