Phil Jackson made a surprise visit to the Los Angeles Lakers’ practice facility Wednesday.
It was the first time Jackson has been seen by the media at the facility over the past two seasons. The team said the former head coach just stopped by.
Lakers coach Luke Walton, who has kept in touch with Jackson and at times solicits advice from his mentor, said he didn’t know his former coach was at the facility until media members pointed at Jackson, who was seated in a balcony above the court.
