LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Los Angeles Clippers have reached an agreement in principle with Vinny Del Negro to become the team’s head coach.

The team said Tuesday night in an e-mail that more details would be announced Wednesday.

Del Negro was fired by the Chicago Bulls in May after going 82-82 in two seasons and making two postseason appearances.

Mike Dunleavy quit as Clippers coach midway through last season and his assistant, Kim Hughes, finished the season as interim coach.
