Frustration continues to loom around the Los Angeles Lakers. So much so that even players have been seen annoyed, that too at none other than coach Darvin Ham. A look at their 2023 league form can help fans realize exactly why that might be happening. Well, it has happened again. And this time it is Anthony Davis.

There is no doubt both Anthony Davis and LeBron James have become the core stones of their teams, even in dire situations, carrying their team. From those brilliant displays at the In-Season tournament to giving hope to all the Lakers fans in the league, they have done their part, except of their Head Coach Darvin Ham. And Anthony Davis knew it in their loss against the LA Clippers.

In their 127-116 loss against city rivals Los Angeles Clippers, heads were boiling. From losing dominance to not finding a clear strategic path, it was a disappointing night for the men in yellow and blue. And Darvin had a huge task on his hands. However, during an interval, the HC seized the opportunity to bring the formation board to change things. However, Anthony Davis was having none of it.

As soon as Ham joined the huddle, the “tired-looking” Anthony Davis dropped his towel and moved away. With LeBron missing that game, it was all AD, as he got 26 points, 12 rebounds, and 2 assists. But it wasn’t enough for a win against the high-flying Clippers.

Whatever the plan ahead could be, it doesn’t look good. And for Darvin Ham to now make this impossible comeback, it would take a mountain to climb. But with key players like Anthony Davis already losing hope, we could see some changes made in the future. Never say never.
