Before training camp, the Lakers hired Tracy Murray as a “shooting consultant” — a temporary role for camp which had the chance of blossoming into a more permanent one. That day has arrived as the Lakers have named the former Bruin (and Laker) as their shooting coach for the upcoming season. From the press release:
In his position, Murray will work with head coach Byron Scott and his staff, focusing on improving the players shooting form and technique.
“I’ve known Tracy a long time, and he was one of the purest shooters I’ve ever seen,” said Scott.
