LeBron James is reportedly not involved in the Los Angeles Lakers' search for a new head coach, contrary to expectations that he would have a major say in the process. Despite his podcast partnership with JJ Redick, James has not pushed for Redick to get the job, with his agent emphasizing that their podcast collaboration does not indicate a desire for Redick as head coach. Instead, the Lakers are considering candidates like James Borrego and Sam Cassell, as they aim to have a coach in place for the long term beyond James' projected two to three remaining seasons. This development suggests that Anthony Davis may have more influence on the coaching decision, given his longer contract with the team.
