Los Angeles Lakers head coach Frank Vogel has received nothing but praise since being hired during the 2019 NBA offseason.
LeBron James, Anthony Davis, and several other players have publicly stated their respect for Vogel and it’s that trust they have in him that has contributed to them having the Western Conference’s best record at 41-12.
At the start, many weren’t sure if Vogel was the right person for this job, mostly due to the messy head coaching search that got him hired in the first place as well as the insistence that assistant coach Jason Kidd be on his staff.
