As the Los Angeles Lakers begin contacting head coaching candidates and scheduling interviews this week, JJ Redick, James Borrego and Sam Cassell have emerged as the franchise's initial leading targets, league sources told The Athletic.
The franchise's next coach will be tasked with guiding both the end of the LeBron James-Anthony Davis era - potentially a two-year window - and then the next era of Lakers basketball led by Davis.
The Lakers are looking for a coach who can grow with the franchise for years to come, placing a premium on maximizing Davis' greatness and high-level player development.
