JJ Redick will interview with the LA Lakers this weekend, according to a report.
After Dan Hurley turned down a reported $70 million offer from the Los Angeles Lakers and opted to stay with the University of Connecticut, the team’s front office continued to look at other candidates to fill the role of their next head coach. Now, it appears JJ Redick has appeared as the emerging top target for the gig. ESPN reported that Redick met with Lakers general manager Rob Pelinka last month at the Chicago draft combine.
Despite a lengthy career as a player, the 39-year-old has no prior coaching experience. Redick has allegedly been in the candidate mix since the beginning, along with Sam Cassell and James Borrego. Cassell appears to be well on his way to winning his fourth NBA championship as an assistant coach for the Boston Celtics, having won three other titles as a player. Borrego is currently an assistant coach with the New Orleans Pelicans and briefly worked with Lakers star Anthony Davis.
