Despite not holding an official position with an NBA team, former Los Angeles Lakers head coach Phil Jackson apparently keeps close tabs on the game.
The Hall of Fame coach was most recently the president of the New York Knicks before the two sides decided to mutually part ways.
However, Jackson made waves in the media when he was spotted at the UCLA Health Training Center during a practice. The Lakers said the 73-year-old was simply stopping by for a visit and nothing more.
This is reportedly not the first time Jackson has visited the team’s practice facility, according to Ramona Shelburne of ESPN:
Know it was a big deal to see @PhilJackson11 at the Lakers facility today.
