NBA: Los Angeles Lakers introduces JJ Redick as first-time head coach

The Hindu  

JJ Redick took the reins of the Los Angeles Lakers on Monday claiming to know the stakes of stepping into a pressure cooker as a first-time head coach with championship expectations. General manager Rob Pelinka said Redick was always in the franchise’s “Plan A pool” of candidates. I understood,” Redick said of being a purported Plan B to Hurley’s Plan A. Redick said stepping away from the media world and into coaching became his plan after interviewing with the Toronto Raptors last summer. That’s what I signed up for.” Redick, who turned 40 on Monday, said he’ll need “buy-in” from players to help his vision become reality.
