Lakers News: LeBron James Friend-Turned-Foe Supports Assistant Coach for LA Gig
Saturday, May 18, 2024
The Los Angeles Lakers are set to hire the fourth head coach in 20-time All-Star LeBron James' soon-to-be-seven-year tenure — provided James sticks around. Beyond making some critical roster revisions to a club that finished with a good-not-great 47-35 record and a disappointing five-game exit at the hands of the Denver Nuggets, the Lakers' most pressing issue at this point is finding said new head coach, a replacement for two-year man Darvin Ham. The club is casting a wide net, and seems to generally be prioritizing a lot of elite assistant coaches, plus James' "Mind The Game" podcast cohost, JJ Redick.

Lakers News: Next Head Coaching Hire Focused on One LA All-Star in Particular?
Saturday, May 18, 2024
Generally when it comes to LeBron James-themed team-building, clubs tend to prioritize LeBron James. For the Los Angeles Lakers, however, that calculus seems to be shifting, at least this summer. Los Angeles is planning for the future as well as the present, when it comes to hiring the team's next head coaching rental, according to Shams Charania and Jovan Buha of The Athletic. Given that the 20-time All-Star combo forward (who has a player option for the 2024-25 season) is the NBA's oldest player at age 39, it certainly seems sensible for L.A. to look towards its other future Hall of Famer, 31-year-old All-Star center Anthony Davis.

2024 NBA Draft prospects pick their GOAT, and Michael Jordan fans will hate it

LeBron James' 21st season in the NBA didn't end the way he wanted. The Los Angeles Lakers were summarily dispatched from the playoffs by the Denver Nuggets again, this time building comfortable leads in each of their four losses following what many called the most competitive postseason sweep ever a year ago. Jamal Murray hit a pair of buzzer-beating game-winners over Los Angeles, too, just further confirmation of just how close yet so far the Lakers really are from top-tier title contention as a potentially transformational offseason dawns.
