Los Angeles Lakers Hire Tracy Murray
- Updated: October 16, 2015
EL SEGUNDO, Calif – The Lakers seem to be stocking up on as many NBA veterans, they can. What will they do with all of them? Well, it looks like using them as coaches is the thinking.
This time the Lakers have hired NBA veteran Tracy Murray to be the teams shooting coach. They announced this news Thursday night.
Tracy Murray is no stranger to LA. Not only is he a native to Tinseltown, but he also played at UCLA , and was a two-time all-Pac-10 player. Murray spent an impressive 12 years in the NBA as well, largely due to his outside shot.
Tracy has made his way around the NBA. He took his talents to the Portland Trail Blazers, Houston Rockets, Toronto Raptors, Washington Wizards, Denver Nuggets and of course the Los Angeles Lakers before playing in Greece and France.
Murray will be primarily working alongside Byron Scott to help the Lakers to improve their 21-61 season. Scott describes his shooting skills as “one of the purest shooters I’ve ever seen.”
