JJ Redick to Become Head Coach of the Los Angeles Lakers
BREAKING: Redick Emerges as Top Candidate for Lakers Vacancy
Former Star Player and Analyst Eyed as Potential Successor
In a surprising turn of events, former NBA star and current podcaster JJ Redick has emerged as the frontrunner to become the next head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers, according to league sources. The Lakers have been without a permanent coach since the departure of Frank Vogel in April and have been searching for a suitable replacement.
Redick, 38, retired from the NBA in 2021 after a 15-season career. He is currently a podcaster on the popular "The Old Man and the Three" show and is a regular contributor on ESPN as a sports analyst. While he has no previous coaching experience at the professional level, his basketball knowledge, media presence, and reputation as a respected figure in the NBA make him an intriguing candidate for the Lakers job.
Sources indicate that the Lakers have been impressed by Redick's intelligence, communication skills, and ability to connect with players. He is also considered a strong tactician with a deep understanding of the game. The Lakers are hoping that Redick can bring a fresh perspective and a winning culture to the team.
The Lakers' decision is expected to be finalized in the coming days, as the NBA season approaches. Redick's potential appointment would mark a significant departure from the Lakers' traditional hiring practices, but it reflects the team's desire for a fresh start.
