The Los Angeles Lakers president of basketball operations Rob Pelinka revealed that the team is working closely with executives from the Los Angeles Dodgers as the franchise undergoes major organizational changes.

Pelinka said Dodgers executives Andrew Friedman and Farhan Zaidi have been involved in helping modernize the Lakers’ structure and front office process.

“It’s a full rebuild and retool,” the Lakers executive said. “It’s adding to the great things that are already here, but elevating it and bringing it to the next level.”

The Lakers are currently searching for two assistant general managers focused on personnel and analytics as part of the restructuring effort.

“We have started a wide search and begun interviews,” Pelinka said.
