Lakers Rumors: Tyronn Lue, LeBron James want Tom Thibodeau

There have been a lot of Los Angeles Lakers rumors in recent days about the team’s head coaching position. While there hasn’t been anything official yet, all signs are pointing toward former Cleveland Cavaliers head coach, Tyronn Lue, getting the job.

Lue was fired after the Cavaliers began the 2018-19 season with an 0-6 record. With LeBron James no longer in town, the Cavaliers decided to start cleaning house, which included moving on from Lue.

With Lue reportedly heading to Los Angeles, there will be a new coaching staff following him. One of the gripes with Luke Walton, while he was head coach, was that he did not diversify his coaching staff under him.
