Jarron Collins, Charles Lee, and Kevin Ollie will all travel to Los Angeles for the interviews. Lee is the youngest of the candidates and has been on the Milwaukee Bucks coaching staff since 2014, while Collins is a former NBA player and was previously the Golden State Warriors defensive coordinator.
