Various new reports on traits the Lakers desire in their new head coach and apparently the front office has realized their next coach needs to be a hard worker.
The little noise when it comes to the Lakers head coaching search may be a result of the team being focused on two names early on in Ty Lue and JJ Redick.
Christian Wood will reportedly not test free agency this summer, choosing instead to exercise his player option to remain a Laker for the 2024-25 season.
After firing Darvin Ham as head coach on Friday, a number of names have surfaced as potential candidates, including Ty Lue, JJ Redick and Mike Budenholzer.
It’s becoming clearer and clearer that Darvin Ham’s time as Lakers head coach appear to be coming to an end with the latest report suggesting he could be fired by the end of the week.
The heat is turning up on Lakers head coach Darvin Ham as more criticism about his decisions and comments continue to pour out of the Lakers organization, including his public back-and-forth with Anthony Davis during the playoffs.
It seems Lakers players were just as perplexed and frustrated with the benching of Austin Reaves and D’Angelo Russell as fans were in one of the many mistakes by Darvin Ham this season.
The Lakers will head into another offseason unsure of the future of LeBron James, though this time all signs seem to point to him staying in Los Angeles.
The Lakers’ underwhelming season and first round exit of the playoffs has reportedly left Darvin Ham’s future in great uncertainty heading into the offseason.
While the playoffs are the focus of the near future, LeBron James and Anthony Davis are reportedly locks for the USA Basketball team in the Olympics this summer.
LeBron James’ future remains uncertain, but it could still be in Los Angeles with the Lakers moving forward, just under a new contract with an important addition to it in a no-trade clause.
