Lakers Fire Coach Darvin Ham After Two Seasons, Western Conference Finals Berth
May 3, 2024, 06:08 PM
The Los Angeles Lakers have officially dismissed Darvin Ham as their head coach after two seasons, during which he led the team to a 90-74 record and a Western Conference Finals berth. This decision follows a series of reports indicating that Ham's job was in jeopardy due to a disappointing season, culminating in a first-round playoff exit. The Lakers' management has announced that they will commence an extensive search for a new head coach, with potential candidates including Mike Budenholzer, Kenny Atkinson, JJ Redick, and Ty Lue, if available. This marks the third coaching change under the management of Rob Pelinka, who has been criticized for the frequent coaching turnovers since 2011, reflecting a broader instability within the team's leadership.
