The former Maverick was officially announced as the Lakers' next head coach on Monday.
JJ Redick habla después de ser presentado como el nuevo entrenador en jefe de los Lakers de Los Ángeles, equipo de baloncesto de la NBA, el lunes 24 de junio de 2024, en El Segundo, California. He also went on to reference the Mavericks when touching on the importance of having a deep roster beyond star players.“The Boston Celtics, the Dallas Mavericks, the Minnesota Timberwolves, it wasn’t about the individual. It was about the group,” Redick said.
Redick said he didn’t speak with James at all about Los Angeles’ lengthy coaching search until a 15-minute conversation after the Lakers offered the job to him last Thursday. But Redick has spoken extensively with fellow Lakers star Anthony Davis, who was more involved than James in the team’s hiring process.
“At no point was my ego or feelings hurt or bruised in any way,” Redick said. “Dan Hurley is a two-time national champion at UConn. I am a two-time 55 Swish League champion in the third- and fourth-grade division. I understood, you know?”Redick played 15 NBA seasons for six teams as a productive shooting guard after a four-year career at Duke. He became the Blue Devils’ career scoring leader under Mike Krzyzewski.
