A surprising frontrunner has emerged ahead of the pack in the Lakers' coaching search.
The Los Angeles Lakers are in the middle of a head coaching search after firing Darvin Ham shortly after being eliminated from the postseason. While other teams with open head coaching positions have jumped at the chance to hire someone, Los Angeles has been slow-playing everything. The team's front office, led by general manager Rob Pelinka, is searching for its third coach since the 2019-20 season, making this hire a crucial one.
The Lakers job is already difficult enough for someone who has been around, but for a first-time head coach, it's even more of a challenge. But Redick's relationship with Lakers superstar LeBron James is likely helping his case.Recently, Redick and James started a basketball podcast called Mind the Game, and he has been a hot name around NBA circles. He was reportedly a candidate for the open job of the Charlotte Hornets before they filled the position.
