You can bet on Jason Kidd taking over for Frank Vogel

As soon as everyone saw Jason Kidd would be a member of Frank Vogel’s Los Angeles Lakers coaching staff, the rumblings began about when Kidd would eventually usurp the head coaching position from Vogel.

Kidd has a history of working his way into jobs, such as going after and taking the Milwaukee Bucks job when he was a coach of the Nets and the Bucks were helmed by Larry Drew. But the folks at Bovada don’t think that will happen by the All-Star break next season. Vogel is the heavy favorite to have his job, according to the Online sportsbook.

Jason Kidd +600

Any Other Coach +1100

Although everyone sees Kidd as a head coach in waiting, it looks like that will likely wait at least a year before it goes down. The Lakers officially announced Vogel as their head coach on Monday.
