Frank Vogel out as coach of Los Angeles Lakers after 3 seasons, sources say

Sources told Adrian Wojnarowski that the Los Angeles Lakers have decided to part ways with coach Frank Vogel.

The search for the Lakers is expected to be lengthy and expansive.

The Lakers beat the Denver Nuggets 146-141 in overtime on Sunday night to end a disappointing season in which they failed to make the playoffs.

I am going to enjoy the game tonight and celebrate what these young guys did in terms of scratching and clawing and getting back in the game and getting a W.

The Lakers were 126-98 in three seasons under the leadership of Vogel, who won an NBA championship in his first season in Los Angeles. The team made the playoffs for the second year in a row, but lost to the Suns in the first round.

The Lakers were eliminated from the play-in tournament on Tuesday because of their leader's injury.
