Lee first worked as an assistant in the NBA with the Atlanta Hawks, and he has been with the Bucks since 2018. He’s likely played a large role in the team’s ascension to becoming one of the best squads in the NBA.
Moreover, at just 37 years old, Lee would surely bring a shot of youthful energy to the Lakers.
Without a doubt, the Lakers are looking for a head coach who can turn around an organization that suffered an incredibly disappointing 2021-22 season. Though Lee is surely totally focused on helping his Bucks repeat as champions this season, he’s likely also quite interested in learning more about what the Lakers have to offer.
