The Los Angeles Clippers are nearing a deal that will have Tyronn Lue join the coaching staff, this will make a return for him to join coach Doc Rivers.
Lue was close to becoming the Lakers next head coach before Lakers decided to step away from negotiations, leading to the hiring of Frank Vogel.
LeBron James was pulling for him to take the coaching position out of hopes of winning another championship together.
Rivers has considered him a close friend with Lue, who was an assistant on Rivers’ staff with the Boston Celtics and with the Clippers previously.
