The latest Los Angeles Lakers coaching saga may finally be reaching its conclusion.
JJ Redick, the longtime shooting guard that played for six different franchises across his 15-year NBA career, completed an interview with the purple and gold for their head coaching position on Saturday, according to Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times.
The Lakers have appeared to focus their coaching search on Redick after University of Connecticut men’s basketball coach Dan Hurley turned down a six year, $70 million offer to coach the team.
Woike reported that Redick sat down with Lakers brass including general manager Rob Pelinka and owner Jeanie Buss, among others.
