Los Angeles Lakers (DR)

The Lakers find themselves in embarrassment after the Dan Hurley fiasco.

But LeBron James reportedly already has a plan behind the scenes, and it obviously involves JJ Redick.

The latter is also expected this weekend in Los Angeles.

While the draft will take place in a few weeks, the Lakers hope to have found their coach by then.

Dan Hurley turned down the front office’s ridiculous offer, while James Borrego seems on track to join the Cavaliers in the East.

All that remains is JJ Redick, who will have an official interview during the weekend according to the country’s biggest insiders.

End clap for the Lakers soap opera?

If all goes well, it’s possible Redick signs a contract next week.

It will be interesting to know the opinion of LeBron James , who has a podcast with the former Clippers player.

But it’s no surprise to Brian Windhorst, who explains that Redick has actually already had his “interviews” with the Lakers.

Brian Windhorst : “Honestly, his interviews have already happened on these podcasts with LeBron James. They dissected the Lakers’ attack at length, dissected at length what they do. The whole world could hear it, including the Lakers front office. »

And if Redick is the main candidate today, it is because the managers appreciated the player’s speech.

It remains to be seen whether this weekend’s interview will be the last, thus putting an end to several weeks of rumors.

If it’s the interview then the organization is not serious

don’t do that JJ, be smart

JJ Redick to the Lakers? This doesn’t delight absolutely anyone, but we have to believe that this has been LeBron James’ plan for a while. It remains to be seen whether this is the right choice from now on.
