Coach World Peace?? That’s right … the Lakers star says he’s eyeing a gig as an NBA head coach when he retires.
TMZ Sports spoke with Metta World Peace earlier this week about the praise he’s been gettin’ from the Lakers coaching staff … who have said his knowledge and experience are valuable to the team even when he isn’t on the floor.
MWP agrees … and goes on to say he’d like to join young successful NBA coaches like Billy Donovan and Brad Stevens.
“It’s fun. I think these coaches are having a great time, doing something they love to do, and I want to be in that same position someday.”
