It seemed done, but it is not so. Once eliminated from the playoffs, the Los Angeles Clippers and Tyronn Lue declared their love for each other with a contract extension as a common goal. Praise was exchanged from both sides and even the head coach He directly shot down the rumor that he could be the new coach of the neighboring Lakers. Well, not only has this renewal not been signed, but according to Shams Charania of The Athletic There has been no progress in that direction.
At this point in the film it seems that the predisposition of Clippers and Lue is not matched by an understanding. The aforementioned journalist points out that the parties are not close to reaching an agreement when the coach is entering the last year of his contract; That is to say, it is not that there is too much margin if the desire of both is to close this matter as soon as possible.
Although there is no green light for now, it seems difficult for the Californians to let a coach of such prestige escape. The franchise’s plan is to inaugurate its new pavilion in the 2024-25 NBA campaign with a solid and attractive project. Precisely for this reason they signed Kawhi Leonard’s enormous extension and aim to keep Lue as head of their locker room. If the opposite happened it would be a surprise.
