The Kings appear to have their sights set on their next head coach and one obstacle remains.

After reportedly meeting with vice president of basketball operations Vlade Divac on Sunday, former Grizzlies head coach Dave Joerger will meet with Kings officials including owner Vivek Ranadive on Monday, according to The Vertical.

That meeting is the "final hurdle" before a potential deal between the two sides.

According to The Vertical, the deal being discussed is a three-year pact worth $4 million per season. ESPN is reporting that the sides are working on a four-year deal at $4 million per.

On Saturday, The Vertical reported that the Kings made Joerger "their No. 1 candidate" and were "planning to move quickly to secure a deal with him."

After three season in Memphis, where he made the playoffs each season, Joerger was fired by the Grizzlies Saturday morning.

"After careful consideration, I concluded that a change was needed to foster the strong culture required to achieve sustainable, long-term success for this organization, the city and our fans," general manager Chris Wallace said in a statement.

The Grizzlies used an NBA-record 28 players this season. Center Marc Gasol's season ended in February with a broken right foot, and point guard Mike Conley' was done in early March with left Achilles tendinitis. Memphis signed eight players to 11 10-day contracts before its playoff ouster.

Joerger had been with Memphis since before the 2007-08 season. He was promoted to replace Lionel Hollins after the Grizzlies were swept in the Western Conference finals in 2013. Joerger is 147-99 overall, 9-13 in the postseason.

The Kings have been trudging through an exhaustive search, bringing in as many as 15 candidates as they try to find the right fit. Joerger, 42, fits the bill as a young, but experienced head coach that is known for his leadership in the locker room.
