Trivia
First job with the Lakers was as broadcaster alongside the legendary Chick Hearn. In 1979, six games into the season, then-Laker coach Jack McKinney was seriously injured in a bicycle accident. Assistant Paul Westhead was promoted to head coach and hired Riley out of the broadcast booth to be an assistant.

Quotes
[Reflecting on the six-game Finals loss to Miami Heat]I would like to see what it would be like with everybody whole. We'll get our chance again. The Lakers have the greatest player in the game today in LeBron James and Anthony Davis.
