Hall Of Famer Cowens To Coach WNBA Expansion Team

Dave Cowens, 57, was hired Thursday to coach and be the general manager of Chicago's expansion WNBA team.

"This seemed like an adventure, this seemed like something a little bit different, so I put it all together and decided this was the best thing for me to do," Cowens said.

Cowens spent 10 out of 11 seasons in Boston during his Hall Of Fame career.

Curry's Future Remains Murky

"Eddy Curry failed Tuesday to receive clearance from Bulls management to resume physical activity, and the fourth-year center's future playing status remains as murky as it has been throughout the eight weeks since it was determined he had had at least two episodes of heart arrhythmia."

Medical tests done Monday showed little change in Curry's heart this according to a team source.

Curry will have more tests done in the coming weeks.

For now, he focused on getting cleared to play while deciding on an agent.

Curry becomes a restricted free agent on July 1.

Curry Hopes To Resume Career

On Monday, Bulls center Eddy Curry will receive his diagnosis from cardiologists on his heart condition and he is hopefully that it will allow him to resume his NBA career.

"I'm ready to go,'' he said. "I'm hoping that the Bulls say that soon. I'll be cleared to play by the doctors [today]. ... It was just an irregular heartbeat. It lasted like a day, then it went away. It was nothing -- just an irregular rhythm that I wasn't used to.''

Curry will become a restricted free agent on July 1.
