The seven-time All-Star has some thoughts about his one-time Philadelphia 76ers teammate's new job.
Seven-time Philadelphia 76ers All-Star center Joel Embiid, now the starter for a loaded Team USA squad as it gears up for the 2024 Olympics in Paris, is apparently not a fan of his former teammate JJ Redick's new job.After building up an impressive media career as a podcaster and ESPN commentator, the 40-year-old former 15-year journeyman shooting guard leaped at the chance to coach his friend and 'Mind The Game' podcast co-host LeBron James on the Los Angeles Lakers.
But if you're coming in, especially with a job like the Lakers, it's kind of a make-or-break situation, because if you succeed, great, you're going to be coaching for years. But if you don't succeed, those coaches are usually bound to be fired within a year or two. I love him, I'm happy for him, but that's a tough job.'Lakers team president Rob Pelinka has now hired his fourth head coach since assuming a leadership role in the team's front office seven years ago.
