LeBron James reportedly unhappy with Darvin Ham’s efforts to limit his playing time. Find out why this decision impacted the team’s performance.
ESPN’s NBA insider Ramona Shelburne reported that Lakers superstar LeBron James disagreed when Darvin Ham attempted to limit his playing minutes at the season’s onset. After only two seasons, the Lakers released Ham.
Shelburne wrote in an ESPN story, “From the start of the season, sources tell us that James opposed the idea of restraining his minutes, a proposal promptly abandoned after a few games.” Throughout the season, key players like James and Anthony Davis scarcely hid their critiques of Ham’s plans, player rotations, and game-time adjustments.
