New Orleans assistant coach James Borrego is scheduled for in-person meetings Wednesday at the Lakers practice facility, according to multiple people familiar with the plans but unauthorized to speak publicly.
He worked with the Pelicans last season following a four-year stint with the Hornets, where he went 138-163. In his final season with the Hornets, Borrego led Charlotte to a 43-39 record.
Borrego previously worked as an assistant in San Antonio and Orlando and spent two seasons at the start of his career in New Orleans, just prior to Anthony Davis’ arrival.
