Lakers cut Kidd, Lou as new head coaching options

The LA Lakers franchise is continuing the search for a new head coach to replace Darwin Ham, who has been fired. Most recently, they eliminated options Jason Kidd of the Dallas Mavericks and Tyrone Lu of the LA Clippers from their options.

Report from ‘This League Uncut’ podcast from a highly reliable news source like Mark Stein that the Lakers are not taking Kidd because he still has one year left on his contract with Dallas. Will likely receive an extension after leading the team to the second round of the Western Playoffs. 

In the past, Kidd was an assistant coach for the Lakers under head coach Frank Vogel, the team that won the 2020 NBA championship.

Meanwhile, Coach Lu would probably renew the ‘Clips’ contract rather than move across the city. As a result, not only the ‘Purple-Gold’ that they were aiming for had to be destroyed, the Phoenix Suns or Cleveland Cavaliers, which they were aiming for, were also disappointed. 

That makes J. J. Reddick, a former sharp guard who now works as a game analyst for ‘ ESPN ‘, become the favorite to find the new manager of the Lakers, even though he has no head coaching experience before, but Le . The Gers also have to compete with the Charlotte Hornets, who also want him.
