JJ Redick admits he felt he was ‘cosplaying’ as Lakers coach when he joined the team

JJ Redick acknowledged something he hadn’t planned to divulge. When asked how different it feels being in his third year as an NBA coach than his first, he opened up. “I probably shouldn’t admit this,” Redick said at Lakers practice Wednesday, “but early in my coaching career I felt like I was cosplaying a little bit, you know? It’s like I was pretending to be a coach.”Luka Doncic talks to JJ Redick against the New Orleans Pelicans. IMAGN IMAGE
