The Lakers are not expected to hire Kurt Rambis as their next head coach… because he’s too ‘integral’ to the front office

When the Los Angeles Lakers inevitably fire Frank Vogel into the sun shortly after the conclusion of the 2021-22 NBA season, there are surely going to be a wide variety of names rumored to replace him, from the already-leaked Doc Rivers and Quin Snyder, to others that have yet to come to light.

One name that won’t be seriously considered, however, is Lakers senior basketball advisor and Basketball Rasputin, Kurt Rambis. But according to Jake Fischer of Bleacher Report, that’s not because he has one of the worst NBA head coaching resumes of all time.
