A lot of names are being thrown around for the job of head coach for the Los Angeles Lakers. Of late, JJ Redick has been the clear favorite.
.
The very good shooter from the past has been doing some media work and having a podcast with LeBron James. There are big questions about his ability to lead, even though he has never been able to do the job he was applying for in the NBA. Plus, Anthony Davis might not want to be with them because James Borrego and Monty Williams are also in the running.
They haven’t made any deals yet. For now, everything is still just a guess. On the surface, LeBron James seems to have already chosen the head coach, but Anthony Davis may not agree with that choice. It looks like the big man doesn’t want to hire JJ Redick. Marc Stein says that instead, The Brow might try to get James Borrego to become their next boss.
James Borrego has a big advantage over JJ Redick because he has been a teacher before. He has been in the NBA for a while and learned a lot from the people who helped him along the way. Borrego first worked as an assistant coach for the Orlando Magic and the New Orleans Hornets. He stayed like that for about five seasons. The Magic gave him his first experience as a head coach. But that was a terrible ending because they only won 10 of the 30 games.
