Smith Asks: Why Didn’t the Lakers Go for Monty Williams as Head Coach?



On June 20, Stephen A. Smith appeared on a show discussing potential candidates for the head coaching position of the Los Angeles Lakers.

Smith argued that the Lakers should have pursued Monty Williams, who had recently been let go by the Detroit Pistons.

“I know Redick is a favorite, but with Monty now available, why wouldn’t the Lakers consider him?”
