The Lakers have reportedly narrowed their head coaching search to two finalists — former player and current broadcaster J.J. Redick, left, and New Orleans Pelicans associate head coach James Borrego, right.
The Lakers have met with and interviewed several candidates over the last few weeks, including Denver Nuggets assistant David Adelman, Boston Celtics assistant Sam Cassell and Minnesota Timberwolves assistant Micah Nori. If the Lakers hire Redick, an announcement isn’t expected to be made until the series is over. Game 4, the earliest the series could end, isn’t until June 14. If necessary, Game 5 would be played on June 17, Game 6 is scheduled for June 20 and Game 7 would be on June 23.
Redick became an analyst/broadcaster for ESPN immediately after retirement and has hosted a podcast since 2016, including, “The Old Man and the Three” which is part of the ThreeFourTwo Productions company he co-founded.
