The Los Angeles Lakers have made the decision to part ways with head coach Darvin Ham after just two seasons at the helm. The announcement came shortly after the Lakers were eliminated from the playoffs by the Denver Nuggets in a first-round series.
Ham, who took over from Frank Vogel, led the Lakers to the Western Conference finals in his first season but failed to replicate that success this year. Despite two playoff appearances under his tenure, the Lakers management felt a change was necessary to pursue their championship aspirations.
