It looks like the Los Angles Lakers’ coaching search isn’t moving forward until they see what happens with the Utah Jazz and Quin Snyder. From Marc Stein’s latest substack where he talks about Doc Rivers, he also mentions Quin Snyder:
Rivers has three years left on his Philadelphia contract worth a reported $24 million, while league sources maintain that the Lakers’ coaching search has moved so slowly at least in part because they want to see if Rivers or another coach from the top tier (like Utah’s Quin Snyder) makes it to the open market this offseason.
