"Assessing Darvin Ham's Future with the Lakers Amidst Turmoil"

Despite pressure and criticism, Lakers coach Darvin Ham reportedly has the support of team governor/co-owner Jeanie Buss, suggesting his job is safe for now. While his coaching decisions and the team's performance have been under scrutiny, any potential change is more likely to occur in the off-season rather than mid-season. The Lakers' struggles may not solely be attributed to Ham, as the team faces various challenges that extend beyond coaching, and finding a suitable replacement mid-season presents its own set of challenges. With Buss backing Ham, significant changes are not expected in the short term, and any evaluation of the coaching situation is likely to occur in the off-season.
