Who is Joe Prunty's wife, Laura Prunty? Looking at the relationship history of new interim head coach of Atlanta Hawks and his better half

The Atlanta Hawks announced earlier today that they've fired head coach Nate McMillan earlier today, which means they don't have a coach right now. Before they can find a replacement for McMillan, the team has assigned Joe Prunty as their interim head coach.

Joe Prunty's wife is Laura Prunty and they made their vows to each other back in 2002. Together, they have two children, the eldest is named Luke Joseph, who was born in 2009. Their second born is named Emma, and Joe Prunty's wife gave birth to her back in July 2012.

Joe Prunty's wife, Laura Marie Green, is from Bexar, Texas. There isn't much information about her on the web as she likes to keep her life private.

Joe Prunty could be McMillan's replacement if he leads the team well

Now that the Hawks are without a head coach, they've made it known that Prunty will be taking over temporarily. However, the Hawks management might change their minds if Joe gets to lead the team to success. Remember, this is what happened to Jacque Vaughn earlier this season.

After Steve Nash was fired, he was quickly named as the interim head coach of the Brooklyn Nets. After much consideration, they felt comfortable in handing over the coaching job to Vaughn, who has done an exceptional job in leading Brooklyn this season.
