Four names have already emerged as possible replacements for Byron Scott in Los Angeles after the Lakers reportedly fired him Sunday.

Golden State Warriors assistant Luke Walton, former Houston Rockets coach Jeff Van Gundy, San Antonio Spurs lead assistant Ettore Messina, and UConn boss Kevin Ollie could be next in line for the Lakers, The Vertical's Adrian Wojnarowski reports.

Van Gundy is the only name of the bunch with an extensive track record of coaching in the NBA. The popular 54-year-old broadcaster led the New York Knicks and the Rockets to a 430-318 record between 1995-2007.

Walton, a pupil of former Lakers coach Phil Jackson, doesn't technically have any head coaching experience on his resume, but he did lead the Warriors to a 39-4 record as part of their record-setting 73-win season.

Messina made his bones overseas and became one of the most highly sought-after international candidates before eventually latching on with the Spurs. Groomed by Gregg Popovich himself, Messina's an appealing candidate - especially considering he holds ties to the Lakers dating back to 2011, when he served as a full-time consultant under Mike Brown.

Finally, Ollie rose to prominence as the leader of the Huskies. He took them to a NCAA tournament championship in 2013-14 and has been linked to several NBA vacancies.
