Despite the two-game winning streak and some improvement, the Darvin Ham mistakes continue

Despite the Lakers' head coach improving at his adjustments, some players' minutes are still far from being the right call

Things have gone for the better with the Los Angeles Lakers as they were able to get a two-game winning streak as they haven't done that since before winning the In-Season Tournament back in December.

Coaching by Darvin Ham has been questioned as his starting lineup has been constantly changing with extreme team rotation, and while he has stepped up his game, some of his mistakes continue to affect the team despite the recent wins.

Players like Cam Reddish and Taurean Prince shouldn't be starting, and D'Angelo Russell should continue to have a starting role, but it seems that the point guard could be nearing the end of his second stint with the purple and gold.

Still, while D'Lo is with the team, in 17 minutes of playtime he outplayed Cam Reddish and Taurean Prince, as even Max Christie got one minute of more playing time than the point guard, D'Lo even ended the game on the bench.

Christian Wood is finally getting an opportunity with the team

Now that Wood has been helpful with the team, the Center should get an opportunity as the starting center with Anthony Davis being the PF over Taurean Prince, but so far Darvin Ham doesn't want to move what has been working in the last two wins.
