Does JJ Redick have any previous coaching experience?

JJ Redick, a former Orlando, Milwaukee, Clippers, Philadelphia, New Orleans, and Dallas basketball player, has become a well-known podcast host in recent years. He has been working alongside LeBron James on the release of their podcast “Mind The Game.”

There are rumors that Redick may be considering a new adventure as a coach, and his first coaching job could be with the Hornets in Charlotte. The Hornets have scheduled an interview with him, and it will be interesting to see what comes of it. Despite being a 16-year veteran of the NBA, Redick has no professional or collegiate coaching experience at any level. Since retiring from the NBA in 2021, Redick has been a broadcaster at ESPN, calling games for the network, appearing on studio shows, and hosting podcasts.

During his NBA career, Redick averaged 12.8 points per game, along with two rebounds and two assists. Since 2021, he has worked in television but started editing and producing podcasts in 2016. He was the first active NBA basketball player and the second professional athlete to take on this challenge. In his podcasts, he often praises Nikola Jokić, one of the most serious candidates for MVP this year. Redick discusses the strategy and science behind basketball from a unique perspective as both an ex-player and a great fan of the game.
