Lakers still want Doc Rivers

According to Marc Stein, the Los Angeles Lakers haven’t “abandoned hope” that the Philadelphia 76ers head coach Doc Rivers will become available to hire this summer. Rivers‘ five-year contract runs through the 2024-25 season.

The Los Angeles Lakers fired head coach Frank Vogel, who compiled a 127-98 regular season and 18-9 postseason record with the team, after the franchise missed out on the NBA playoffs this season.
