Darvin Ham's proud of Christian Wood role but backfires with the Lakers fans

Since the Los Angeles Lakers became the first In-Season Tournament Champions things went downhill with the team, between injuries, the lack of 3-point shooting, players being outplayed on rebounds, and coach Darvin Ham's lack of adjustments on his team rotation and changing lineups had a reported disconnect between him and the team's locker room.

One of the players who didn't have enough opportunities was Christian Wood, despite helping the team when he got the chance, but now that coach Darvin Ham is finally using him correctly, the team is winning again.

"My man has settled into that backup 5 role," said Darvin Ham on Christian Wood, who is averaging 9.4 points, 6 rebounds, and 1 block, while shooting 53/53/91 in 20 mpg since returning to the rotation 7 games ago.

Fans believe that Christian Wood should be a starter over Taurean Prince, as the team would benefit from the big man playing at center alongside Anthony Davis as the team's PF.

Taurean Prince has been inconsistent with his 3-point shooting

The biggest strength of Taurean Prince is his 3-point shooting, but he hasn't been able to find the consistency he wanted his personal goal was to shoot over 40% but his efficacy has been off.
