“We will forever be grateful to him for giving us the championship,” said general manager Rob Pelinka. “This is an incredibly difficult decision, but we believe it is necessary.” A successor solution was not mentioned.
The Lakers won 146-141 aet at the Denver Nuggets on Sunday, but missed out on the playoffs earlier. Vogel’s contract would have continued for another year.
