The Los Angeles Lakers suffered a disappointing end to their 2023-24 NBA season, being eliminated from the playoffs after a 4-1 series loss to the Denver Nuggets. Coach Darvin Ham did not shy away from addressing the frustrations of the season, particularly calling out an unnamed starter for underperforming.
In an article by ESPN’s Dave McMenamin, Ham discussed the challenges faced by the team throughout the season, including inconsistent lineups due to injuries. The coach’s comments hinted at a possible shakeup in the roster, with players like Austin Reaves, Taurean Prince, or D’Angelo Russell being speculated as the underperforming starter in question.
The Lakers finished the season with a 47-35 record, marking a roller coaster of highs and lows for the team. With stars LeBron James and Anthony Davis getting older, the pressure is on for the Lakers to improve and make a deeper playoff run in the future.
As the offseason begins, owner Jeanie Buss will have important decisions to make regarding the coaching staff and roster. The team will need to regroup and bounce back from the disappointing season to maintain their status as a competitive force in the league.
