Thus, most predicted that Ham would be the one to turn the team around for the 2023–24 NBA season.
Rather, Ham’s approach is just not effective for the Lakers, and it has gradually increased the tension within the locker room.
So much so that many Lakers players’ agents are upset that their clients aren’t receiving enough opportunities with the team, according to NBA insider Jake Fischer, as stated via NBACentral on Twitter.
According to the report, “a number of agents have been contacting the Lakers front office to voice their frustration about their clients not receiving the right opportunities.
According to the tweet, the agents are even phoning the Lakers front office to let them know how frustrated their clients are with Darvin Ham’s coaching for not providing more opportunities.
The tweet did not include a specific name, but many believe that players like D’Angelo Russell and Austin Reaves may be the ones mentioned.
Aside from that, it’s possible that the Lakers will let go of Darvin Ham before the 2023–24 NBA season ends, according to recent reports.
It’s clear that Ham has already lost control of the Lakers locker room, and it won’t be long before adjustments are made. The 17-time NBA champions are currently the 11th seed in the Western Conference with a 17-19 record.
