On May 1, Beijing time, after the Los Angeles Lakers entered the offseason, they took the lead in firing Frank Vogel, and the selection of coach became the first priority at the moment. Recently, American basketball reporter Wo Shen revealed in the program that some plans for the Lake to choose a coach.
"The Lakers choose a coach differently from other teams, other teams usually apply for interviews of as many as 12 candidates directly, and then interview them in turn, sometimes the team will interview 2-3 candidates a day, through online and offline methods." "But the message I got was that the Lakers were going to take the approach of applying for a call and interviewing permission for one or two coaches at a time, talking to those coaches, thinking about it, and then contacting the next group of two or three coaches," Wa shen said. ”
It is reported that the current Lakers have called to request interview permission from the Bucks assistant coach Darwin Hamm, who once served as an assistant coach at the Lakers.
Grizzlies head coach Jenkins and Jazz head coach Snyder have both served as assistant coaches around Budenholzer, and Hamm has received high praise in the league, he is one of the Lakers' seriously considered candidates, and is the key candidate for the Lakers' coaching.
