On June 12, Beijing time, when Hurley, the coach of the University of Connecticut's two-time NCAA championship, rejected the Lakers' six-year, $70 million contract, and now on the podcast "FanduelTV", Lakers veteran and three-time winner of the Sixth Man of the Year award Lu Wei suggested that James should be a player-coach, Redick could become the chief assistant coach, and Shams reiterated that James was not involved in the Lakers coaching.

When the Lakers were out of the playoffs in the first round this year, they lost to the defending champion Nuggets with a total score of 1-4, and were eliminated by the Nuggets for two consecutive seasons, winning only one of the nine games in the two-round series, which was naturally unsatisfactory, and it also made the Lakers directly fire Ham.

Now Ham has returned to the Bucks as an assistant coach, and the Lakers are still in the process of selecting a coach. The Lakers previously targeted UConn champion coach Hurley, and the initial rumor was that the offer was close to $100 million for eight years, but then it was actually a six-year, $70 million contract.

Hurley rejected the Lakers' offer and chose to stay at UConn with $20 million less of his contract, aiming to lead the team to a three-game NCAA championship.

The Lakers still need to pick a coach, and three-time Sixth Man of the Year winner Lowe has played for the Lakers for two seasons, and he gave advice on the podcast "FanduelTV" that James should be a player-coach and Redick could be the head assistant coach, of course, this idea is beautiful, but it is basically impossible to come true.

The Lakers' current hot coaching candidates are still Redick and Borrego. As for James, he has been repeatedly rumored to "manipulate" the Lakers to choose a coach. Shams reiterates: "I said it a few weeks ago, but people don't seem to believe me. However, I would like to say that James was really not involved in the selection process of the Lakers this time. ”
