Ex-Milwaukee Bucks shooting guard JJ Redick could be shifting careers yet again soon. The 39-year-old has been able to establish himself as one of the fastest-rising personalities in sports broadcasting of late after securing a high-profile position with ESPN.
At this point, however, Redick appears on track to return to the NBA now that he has been linked to the head coaching vacancy with the Charlotte Hornets.

NBA guru Shams Charania broke the news on Monday evening as he reported that Redick is closing in on becoming Charlotte’s next head coach:
“The Charlotte Hornets are interviewing JJ Redick for their head coaching job, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium. The 15-year NBA veteran and former Duke star has shown an interest in making a coaching jump in recent years,” Shams reported.
