Los Angeles Lakers head coach JJ Redick received a contract extension after completing his first season, a period during which the team achieved a 50-32 record and made the playoffs.
The Lakers announced the extension in El Segundo, California, with general manager Rob Pelinka expressing confidence in Redick’s abilities.
Redick initially signed a four-year contract in June 2024, although the specifics of the new extension remain undisclosed.
At 41, Redick brings experience from his previous 15-season career as an NBA player. While superstar forward LeBron James picked up a $52.6 million option for the upcoming season, Pelinka indicated that James’s future plans remain undecided.
