After firing a first-time head coach, would the Lakers hire another or lean into a veteran such as Atkinson or Borrego?

For the last few months, there has been lots of speculation that the Lakers will try to trade for a third star this offseason. The Athletic beat writer Jovan Buha affirmed this while saying they will be “aggressive” and “active” in dangling draft picks in order to become a championship-caliber team again (h/t Lakers Daily ).

JJ Redick could reportedly be a name to monitor in the Los Angeles Lakers' head coaching search. NBA insider Adrian Wojnarowski said Saturday that the Lakers are examining his ESPN coworker as they ramp up the process to replace the recently fired Darvin Ham.
