The LA Clippers are planning to pursue a contract extension with coach Tyronn Lue that'll allow him to avoid entering the final year of his deal in 2025-2026, sources told ESPN on Friday.
Lue is expected to be a target in the Los Angeles Lakers' coaching search and perhaps other looming vacancies.
The Clippers are trailing the Dallas Mavericks 3-2 in the Western Conference first-round playoff series with Game 6 set for Friday (ESPN, 9:30 p.m. ET), but the outcome of this postseason has no bearing on the Clippers' desire to keep Lue as the franchise's long-term coach, sources said. LA was 51-31 and the fourth seed in the Western Conference this season.

Re: Clippers trying to extend Ty Lue
Even if he refuses the extension, this confirms he's not going to the Lakers as the Clippers won't let him.

Re: Clippers trying to extend Ty Lue
Would not mind Ty joining Mavs to reunite with Kai, but not happening now regardless the series result - Mavs advance, Kidd stays; Clippers advance, Ty's legacy solidifies and stays
