The Los Angeles Lakers organization has undergone a complete makeover in recent months, as owner Jeanie Buss decided to part ways with her brother Jim as vice president of basketball operations, in addition to relieving general manager Mitch Kupchak of his duties.
A series of bad basketball decision led to that happening, and now Laker great Magic Johnson is left to pick up the pieces as he was hired as president of basketball operations. Kobe Bryant’s former agent Rob Pelinka will also be assisting with that, as he was pegged as the next general manager to replace Kupchak.
