The Los Angeles Lakers are reportedly going to add Lionel Hollins, Frank Vogel and Mike Woodson to their coaching search, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic.
The Lakers and Tyronn Lue were unable to agree upon a deal and have ended talks.
The Los Angeles Lakers are adding these former NBA coaches to their coaching search: Lionel Hollins, Frank Vogel and Mike Woodson, league sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium.

Hollins has coached the Memphis Grizzlies and Brooklyn Nets. He has an overall regular season record of 262-272 and a postseason mark of 20-21.
Vogel has coached the Indiana Pacers and Orlando Magic. He has a career coaching record of 304-291 in the regular season and 31-30 in the playoffs. Vogel's Pacers teams had a lot of battles with Lakers superstar LeBron James when The King was on the Miami Heat.
Woodson has coached the Atlanta Hawks and New York Knicks. He's 206-286 in the regular season and 18-28 in the playoffs.
The Lakers are a mess right now. Everyone thought they were going to hire Lue since he's LeBron's guy. Now, the Lakers have to continue their coaching search by interviewing three guys who aren't that hot of commodities right now. Woodson hasn't been a head coach since 2014. Vogel was fired by the Magic in 2018 and Hollins was let go by the Nets in 2016.
The Lakers haven't made the playoffs since 2013.
