Rob Pelinka Expected to Conduct Search for Luke Walton’s Replacement

0

Earlier today we told you that it was time for Jeanie Buss to start to look outside her inner circle in an attempt to gather information on how to move the Lakers forward in the wake of Magic Johnson’s resignation. Then, well, the Lakers and Luke Walton decided to “mutually part ways”.

So, this seems like a perfect chance for Jeanie to, you know, take the deliberate and patient approach to finding a new President (or, even, Vice President — like the title Jim Buss held) of Basketball Operations, then let that person determine how they might (or might not want to) work with Rob Pelinka in order to conduct the search to hire a replacement for Walton.
