Unveiling the Lakers' plan to pick a coach

According to The Athletic, the Los Angeles Lakers are expected to begin reaching out to coaching candidates in the coming days, with the focus in the early stages being on interviewing current assistant coaches and former head coaches with whom they are less familiar.

Lakers general manager Pelinka has been gathering information on a number of head coach candidates, including ESPN analyst JJ Redick, but the first requests for interview permission will be those who have not met or know less about the organization.

In Pelinka's conversations with league officials, the word "grinder" appears repeatedly in the Lakers general manager's description of the Lakers' head coach's key characteristics.

The selection is expected to take place in phases, starting with the first round, followed by a period of talking with coaches with whom the Lakers have more of a history of collaboration, and then narrowing down the roster to the final round of candidates.

The initial interview roster is expected to include assistant coaches such as the Heat's Chris Quinn and the Pelicans' James Borrego.

Obviously, the Lakers' selection process will be very long, according to previous reports, the Lakers are expected to finalize a new coach before the draft, and the current Lakers new coach candidates are - former NBA player JJ Redick, Pelicans assistant coach James Borrego, Warriors assistant coach Atkinson, Timberwolves assistant coach Mika Norrie, Nuggets assistant coach David Adelman, Mavericks assistant coach Sean Sweeney and Heat assistant coach Chris Quinn.

After the Lakers were eliminated 4-1 by the Nuggets in the first round this season, the Lakers fired Ham and the entire coaching staff, and the first step in this summer's operation is to create a new coaching staff. We'll see.

Exposure Brownie will definitely be chosen

Bronny, who reportedly has a heart problem and has been approved by the league to participate in the 2024 NBA Draft, is set to participate in a joint tryout and is expected to participate in a 5-on-5 melee match for the joint tryout starting Wednesday, which is an important step for him to prove himself to league executives.

Bronny's joint trial body side data has been released, the bare foot height is about 1.87 meters, the weight is 95 kilograms, the arm span is about 2.01 meters, the standing touch height is about 2.5 meters, and the jump height is about 3.07 meters.

Compared with the official height of 1.93 meters in the NCAA, Bronny's physical height has shrunk significantly, but his arm span is good; According to Shams of The Athletic, Bronny is expected to stay in the 2024 draft. It's really not a question of whether Bronny can be drafted, but what pick he can get picked in.

In other words, the Register revealed that Bronny would definitely be drafted, but it was just optimistic about which pick he would be drafted; At present, the Lakers are still the number one picker to draft Bronny, and the Lakers have the No. 17 pick in the first round and the No. 55 pick in the second round this year.

Bronny played in 25 games for USC this season, averaging 4.8 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game while shooting 36.6 percent from the field and 26.7 percent from three-point range.

The Hawks could rebuild a trade for Trae Young

According to Jake Fischer of The Athletic, there is a growing belief that the Hawks will consider trading Trae Young this summer, saying: Competitors are increasingly convinced that All-Star Trae Young will also be put on the shelf this summer, and perhaps the Hawks will trade the player for a top-tier first-round pick in upcoming trade talks.

Michael Scotto of The Athletic reports that although the Hawks have strongly opposed trading Trae Young over the past few years, rival executives generally believe that the Hawks will tear up the backcourt duo in the offseason and send away Trae Young or Dejounte Murray; This offseason, the Hawks will be more open than ever to trade talks about Trae Young.

Shams said there would be serious conversations about his future with the Hawks if he feels the Hawks don't have plans to build a competitive team around him in the offseason. The conversation between Young and the Hawks is expected to begin this week and continue through draft night.

Wembanyama is also reportedly interested in teaming up with Trae Young.

Michael Scotto also said that despite the hype in some media outlets about the Spurs trading Trae Young, the Hawks and Spurs did not have substantive talks about this before the trade deadline, according to league sources. However, with the lotto draw over, league sources are skeptical that this will change in the future.

As previously reported, the Lakers are interested in pursuing a third star in the offseason, with Trae Young being one of their targets.

After the Hawks drew the No. 1 pick, there were a lot of rumors about the Eagles breaking up the two guns and trading others, and if the Hawks select Alex Sarr in France, Capela could be traded by the Hawks.

The Bulls plan to sign DeRozan to a contract extension

The Chicago Bulls are still trying to stay competitive next season with the goal of re-signing DeRozan, with the entire league believing DeRozan will eventually sign a contract extension with the Bulls because the team is still hungry for competition, his role, and Chicago's willingness to pay him a salary.

DeRozan played in 79 regular-season games this season, averaging 37.8 minutes per game, with 24 points, 4.3 rebounds and 5.3 assists.

Multiple teams are interested in the big man Bridges

The Hornets, Pistons and Jazz are expected to be interested in signing forward Myles Bridges (full free agent) in the free agent market, Michael Scotto reports.

In the 2023-24 regular season, Myles Bridges played in 69 games for the Hornets, averaging 21.0 points, 7.3 rebounds and 3.3 assists in 37.4 minutes per game, and was suspended by the league for domestic violence.

Ingram's departure is inevitable

Ingram's departure from the Pelicans is inevitable and inevitable, the journalist said league observers are increasingly viewing Ingram's departure as inevitable rather than possible, and that some Eastern Conference teams (Philadelphia, Cleveland, Atlanta and Orlando) have been mentioned as potential trade seekers for Ingram, the journalist said.

This season, Ingram played in 64 regular season games, averaging 20.8 points, 5.1 rebounds and 5.7 assists per game, and in the first round of this year's playoffs, the Pelicans were swept by the Thunder, Ingram averaged 14.3 points, 4.5 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 1 steal and 1.3 blocks per game, shooting 34.5% from the field and 25% from three-point range.
