NBA Rumors: Lakers, Tyronn Lue End Contract Negotiations For Head Coaching Job

After interviewing four candidates, the Los Angeles Lakers entered contract negotiations with former Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Tyronn Lue.

As Lue recently celebrated his 42nd birthday with a Lakers-themed cake, it appeared he would become the team’s new head coach fairly soon.

However, the two sides reportedly reached an impasse during negotiations and one potential issue was the Lakers wanting former Milwaukee Bucks head coach Jason Kidd on Lue’s coaching staff.
