The California franchise cut off its coach’s head after a nightmarish season.

It was expected, it’s confirmed. The Lakers are parting ways with their coach, Frank Vogel, who acts as a fuse after a season in the form of an XXL fiasco. The Californian club finished 11ein the Western Conference standings and thus missed the play-offs. “I have enormous respect for Frank, both on and off the pitch. He’s a great coach and a good man. We will be forever grateful to him for his work in guiding us to the 2019-20 NBA Championship. It’s an incredibly difficult decision to make, but we think it’s necessary at this point.Lakers vice president of basketball operations and general manager Rob Pelinka said in a statement.

Formerly in charge of the Pacers and the Magic, Frank Vogel, 48, took charge of the Lakers in 2019, offering the LA club its 17th title in the Orlando bubble two years ago. He leaves the Lakers with a record of 127 wins and 98 losses (56.4% wins). The identity of his successor is not yet known.
