The Los Angeles Lakers are hiring! After parting ways with former head coach Darvin Ham, the team has embarked on a quest to fill his role. As expected, finding a person with the dedication needed to handle the Lakers locker room is no easy feat. But nothing seems impossible, as they have found not one but multiple candidates fit for the role. Among them stands JJ Redick as a wildcard name. But why is Redick a wildcard?

The former NBA champion has remarkable experience as an ESPN analyst. JJ Redick also owns a media network, however, he lacks any experience as a coach. This makes his profile somewhat unfit for the role. Still, the Lakers are reportedly trying to land Redick due to his strong relationship with NBA championships. Consequently, his status has created a buzz across the basketball world. In a recent episode of Nightcap, Gilbert Arenas shared his insights about the ongoing controversies. A glimpse of the interview was posted on the official YouTube channel:  “Unc, Ocho & Gil react to Mavericks-Thunder, Celtics advance, Bronny shines at NBA Combine | Nightcap.”
