The Los Angeles Lakers are pressing ahead during the offseason, preparing for the NBA draft and putting together a staff for newly hired head coach Luke Walton.
Walton himself is doing double duty—assisting Steve Kerr and the Golden State Warriors as they attempt to dig out of a hole in the Western Conference Finals, while also reaching out to candidates who will ultimately become his own assistants.
OKC is one win from the Finals and Luke Walton is one GSW loss from coaching the Lakers.

Staffing can be a convoluted process, however.
