The Los Angeles Lakers promote Zach Guthrie, currently the South Bay G League coach, to the NBA coaching staff under head coach JJ Redick. Multiple reports say the move elevates Guthrie from the team’s G League affiliate to an assistant coach role with the Lakers. One source also describes Guthrie’s updated responsibilities as including oversight of player development. The change is presented as a major adjustment to Redick’s coaching staff, with Guthrie joining Redick’s staff in an offseason personnel update. The reports indicate the Lakers are moving internally by bringing a coach from their G League system to the NBA level. Specific details about the start date, contract terms, and the precise scope of duties beyond player development are not included in the available summaries, but all accounts agree on the central point: Guthrie is being promoted from South Bay to work as an assistant under Redick.
