    Lakers advisor Kurt Rambis is playing a major role in the franchise's coaching search, league sources tell ESPN. He's emerging as a powerful voice in basketball operations.

    Thanks, Senator, for promoting my piece. As a major contributor to Trump’s failed Latin America policy, your condemnation is particularly gratifying.
