Although JJ Redick is his first head coach, he will include a lot of knowledge to back him up.
As the Los Angeles Lakers ' first head coach this year, JJ Redick wo n't be juggling the situation by himself.
The Lakers are hiring two previous head educators as best helpers on Redick's employees, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski: Nate McMillan and Scott Brooks.
McMillan, 59, was most just the head coach of the Atlanta Hawks, and has a long application. He's been in the NBA since 1986 when he was a next- round pull of the Seattle SuperSonics. He retired from professional football in 1998, but he continued to coach under the supervision of the SuperSonics until his playing days. He was elevated to head coach in 2000 and stayed until 2005, when he left to become the head coach of the Portland Trail Blazers. He likewise spent four years as head coach of the Indiana Pacers.
Brooks ' resume is almost as much. Since 2021, he has worked for the Shirts as an assistant coach, but he has also spent 12 years as a head coach. He spent seven seasons leading the Oklahoma City Thunder starting as interim head coach in 2008 ( having joined them the season before as an assistant when they were the SuperSonics ), then five seasons with the Washington Wizards beginning in 2016.
That's an amazing amount of experience on Redick's workers, and that's just to begin. There are more places to replace. We'll have to see if Redick gets a lot of training knowledge or if the Lakers continue to surround him with it.
