30. JJ Redick — Los Angeles Lakers

JJ Redick has the least extensive coaching resume of any current NBA coach – unless you’re willing to factor in his work as a volunteer on his kids’ 4th grade team. Redick landed the Lakers job after a strenuous coaching search which saw a failed attempt to lure two-time champion Danny Hurley away from Connecticut. Redick has kept himself busy since retiring from the NBA following a 16-year career. He started his own podcast and served as an analyst for ESPN. His peers have praised his work ethic and basketball IQ, but there’s more that goes into coaching. It will be interesting to see how quickly he adjusts to his new role while leading two of the best players in the league — LeBron James and Anthony Davis.
