JAKARTA - The NBA basketball club, the Los Angeles Lakers, began hunting for coaches to welcome the new season. There are already two names on the radar.
The two names are former Golden State Warriors coach Mark Jackson and former Portland Trail Blazers coach Terry Stotts. Reportedly, these two figures have established communication with club management.
The Athletics columnist, Shams Charania, even reported on Saturday, May 7, that the Lakers had interviewed Jackson. This one figure is also touted as a candidate for the head coach of the Sacramento Kings.
Jackson has not been in charge of an NBA team in a relatively long time after his contract was terminated by the Warriors in 2014, after being stopped in the first round of the play-offs.
Meanwhile, ESPN columnist Adrian Wojnarowski reports, the Lakers have also interviewed Stotts this week. Stotts previously managed the Trail Blazers from 2012-2021 and has not missed the last eight seasons leading the team to the playoffs.
As reported by Antara, the Stotts' best achievement was bringing the Trail Blazers to the Western Conference finals in 2018-19 before losing to the Warriors four straight games.
The Lakers this season only finished in 11th place and failed to participate in the play-in tournament let alone the play-off phase. This result led them to fire Frank Vogel, who two years ago led the team to the 2019/2020 NBA championship.
