The Lakers reportedly have hired former NBA sharpshooter, podcast host and ESPN broadcaster JJ Redick to be their next head coach.
, the next voice of the Lakers is a familiar one in former NBA sharpshooter, podcast host and ESPN broadcaster JJ Redick.ESPN Sources: JJ Redick has agreed on a four-year contract to become the next coach of the Los Angeles Lakers . Rob Pelinka offered job this morning and Redick’s started working on a staff to surround himself with experience.Redick, who has no head coaching experience at any level, is a bold choice for a franchise with a storied history such as the Lakers.
Redick came to Los Angeles in 2013 with the Clippers where he played five seasons for the team, helping them reach the playoffs in all five. It was in the arena formerly known as Staples Center where we quickly learned that Redick's basketball IQ was off the charts and that one day he would be destined for more than just the broadcasting booth.
Redick was a sharpshooter throughout his career and is expected to emphasize 3-point shooting, pace and space as he tries to rejuvenate the Lakers' offense. With stars like James and Anthony Davis on the roster, Redick will look to make the Lakers a championship contender both this season and into the future. In order to do so, he will need to foster a winning culture and understand the dynamics and roles with the star-studded lineup.
