Rasheed Wallace will be part of La Lakers
Rasheed Wallace, third on the list of technical errors in the NBA league of all time, he became a new member of the Los Angeles Lakers professional staff. Wallace will be the assistant coach from the new season, the right hand of the new coach Darwin Ham. Those two will reunite after they were teammates in the Detroit Pistons a long time ago.
Rasheed Wallace was a great basketball player, but he also went down in legend as one of the players with the most technical errors in history. In this domain, the leader is Karl Malone with 332 technical errors. In second place is Charley Barkley with 329, while Wallace amassed 317. No one else in NBA history, except the three of them, has broken the 300-technical career error limit. As for the individual season, Wallace is the record holder with 41 in the 2000/01 season.
Wallace began his coaching career as an assistant in Detroit. He later switched to university basketball and in his last job before the Lakers, in the just-concluded season, was an assistant to the legendary Penny Hardaway at the University of Memphis.
Recall that the LA Lakers were the biggest disappointment in the last NBA season because they failed to qualify for the playoffs of the Western Conference.
