The Los Angeles Lakers hired Frank Vogel as their head coach on Monday, confirming news that was widely reported Saturday.
However, the press release announcing the move made no mention of the other alleged piece of the Lakers’ new coaching setup. Multiple media outlets reported Saturday that Jason Kidd would be hired as an assistant coach on Vogel’s staff, but Kidd wasn’t mentioned Monday in the Lakers’ announcement. “We are excited to add Frank Vogel as the next head coach of the Lakers,” general manager Rob Pelinka said in a statement. “Coach Vogel has a proven track record of success in the NBA Playoffs, and he reflects the core qualities we were looking for in a head coach — including, detailed game preparation, extreme hard work, and holding players accountable to the highest basketball standards.”
Vogel, 45, replaces Luke Walton, who mutually parted ways with the Lakers on April 12 after compiling a 98-148 record in three seasons. Walton subsequently was hired as the Sacramento Kings head coach.The head-coaching job will be the third of Vogel’s NBA career, in which he has compiled a 304-291 regular-season record. He was 250-181 with the Indiana Pacers , then 54-110 with the Orlando Magic .
