PREDICT IT! What team will Russ play with to start next season?
Russell Westbrook trade rumors will likely continue until he’s dealt, and Marc Stein has broken down the latest Lakers trade rumors since the offseason began - here’s his latest report after he previously suggested Gordon Hayward could be used as a salary matcher in a Hornets trade:
“Yet it has since been conveyed to me that the Lakers have more boundaries than advertised when it comes to weighing Westbrook trades. One league source said that injury histories would be a prime consideration in any deal, given how injuries have so routinely intruded upon the last two seasons for both 37-year-old LeBron James and 29-year-old Anthony Davis.
Translation: The Lakers are unlikely to consent to a Charlotte trade headlined by Gordon Hayward — not after Hayward’s first two seasons in Charlotte have likewise been injury-filled. The Lakers surely understand that they need to factor in durability if they are taking on long-term money, which suggests that Terry Rozier would have to be the Southern California-bound headliner if the Hornets and Lakers eventually progress to serious trade talks.”
Lakers head coach rumors continue to swirl, but Lamar Odom has a familiar face he would want as the next guy in charge:
“Phil Jackson, I know can coach LeBron with the triangle offense. I think that would keep him around a little longer. Preserve him a little longer. I would love for Phil Jackson to be the coach of the Los Angeles Lakers … If he was to come back and coach the Lakers, I think the Lakers would be the pick, the fan favorite.”

The Los Angeles Times’ recent report on potential Lakers head coach candidates included these names, some of which haven’t been mentioned in the latest Lakers rumors:
- Nick Nurse (Head Coach, Raptors)
- Doc Rivers (Head Coach, 76ers)
- Quin Snyder (Head Coach, Jazz)
- Terry Stotts (Former Head Coach, Trail Blazers)
- Scott Brooks (Asst. Coach, Trail Blazers)
- Mike Brown (Former Head Coach, Lakers)
- Alex Jensen (Asst. Coach, Jazz)
- Juwan Howard (Head Coach, Michigan)
Scott Brooks is an intriguing name for the Lakers head coach job, and his resume could put him in contention for the opening:
- Assistant in Portland this season
- Thunder (2008-15): 338-207 (.620)
- NBA Finals appearance in 2011-12
- Wizards (2016-21): 183-207 (.469)
- Nearly 20 years as an NBA coach
