JJ Redick is the front-runner to be the next head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers, but no decision on the position has been made, The Athletic's Shams Charania reports.
Per the report, Redick is the favorite for the job over fellow candidate James Borrego, the associate head coach of the New Orleans Pelicans. Redick, a former NBA player, is currently a broadcast analyst for ESPN. The Lakers still have multiple steps planned in their head-coaching search, per the report.
Redick, 39, has never held a coaching position beyond the youth level.
