Alarming new report on Darvin Ham, Los Angeles Lakers heading into NBA Playoffs

Los Angeles Lakers head coach Darvin Ham sat on the bench inside Crypto.com Arena Tuesday night watching his team get blown out by the conference-rival Golden State Warriors.

Alarming new report on Darvin Ham, Los Angeles Lakers heading into NBA Playoffs

With Anthony Davis sidelined, it was an ugly defensive effort from the Lakers as they dropped a second consecutive game. By all accounts, Golden State put up one of the best three-point shooting performances of all-time. It shot 26-of-41 from beyond the arc in what ended up being a 134-120 Lakers loss.

As all of this was playing out, Lakers star LeBron James could be seen pretty much tuning Ham out. Heck, this replay shows the entire team walking away as Ham was drawing up a play with the game out of hand late in the fourth quarter.

The loss dropped Los Angeles to 45-35 on the season. It is just a half game ahead of Golden State for the ninth seed in the Western Conference with two games remaining. It also lost the season series to the Warriors by a margin of 3-1.

Locked into a spot in the NBA Play-In Tournament, this is not necessarily how James and the Lakers expected the 2023-24 season to unfold. There is also a telling report as it relates to the situation in Southern California.
