Unlike last season, Darvin Ham will have a particularly large and talented squad at his disposal. He will therefore have to make big decisions in his rotations, and a replacement has just sent him a message on this subject.
With all the trades rocking the Eastern Conference in recent days, the Lakers must be very happy to be on the other coast. Because after the arrival of Damian Lillard in Milwaukee to support Giannis Antetokounmpo and that of Jrue Holiday in Boston, it is difficult to imagine another team grilling them in the race for the Finals.
In the West the competition will also be quite tough with the Nuggets, the Suns and perhaps even the Warriors if Stephen Curry is at an exceptional level, but the Purple and Gold have enough arguments to shine. LeBron James has apparently found a second youthAustin Reaves reached a milestone with Team USA this summer and Anthony Davis will have the opportunity to breathe with the arrival of Christian Wood.
Gabe Vincent cash on his benching
In fact, the squad is so complete and so stocked that Darvin Ham will have to make several big decisions before the start of the season. He has already taken an important one by deciding to offer the starting point guard position to D’Angelo Russell rather than rookie Gabe Vincent, even though he is coming off a legendary playoff campaign with Miami. He responded to this news for the site SportSkeeda :

Marine Johannès dismissed, big anger from fans: “The coach had better…
I’m just going to go out on the pitch and be myself. It will be up to coach Ham to worry about rotations. I’m not a coach, it’s not up to me to decide. I go out there and do my job. I’m going to do everything in my power to help this franchise and this team win games.
As I have seen in my career, not all games are the same in the NBA. Thinking about the long-term goal and keeping in mind the desire to help the team, I will do whatever is asked of me. The roster is full of talent. We will experience difficult periods in our adaptation, but I hope that we will be able to overcome it to finish as high as possible.
Gabe Vincent is not the player with the most ego, he is willing to come off the bench if it is beneficial for the team. It must be said that D’Angelo Russell is a former All-Star, he already knows the Darvin Ham system well, his place in the starting 5 is therefore obvious. But everything moves quickly in the NBA and in Los Angeles, so in the back of his mind, the former Heat must still be ready.
Gabe Vincent doesn’t blame Darvin Ham, he knows that the coach is above everything. On the other hand, he intends to give 100%, shine with the Lakers and put doubt in his mind. He may not stay on the bench all season.
