While coach Darvin Ham has lost respect from his locker room, the same can't be said of assistant coach Phil Handy, who receives love and support from the Lakers players and is apparent by the difference in the attitude of the roster towards one compared to how to behave with the other.

In recent days, different videos have been leaked that showcase how players like Anthony Davis, LeBron James, and even Austin Reaves show indifference or even are done with coach Darvin Ham.

A new video has been leaked, but this time is Rui Hachimura and Austin Reaves showing some love and respect to Phil Handy, who is known to be close to the players and has been helping them to get better, especially with their 3-point shooting.

Phil Handy has been rumored to be the top choice to replace coach Darvin Ham in case the front office decides to fire him. While still the situation isn't as critical to get there, things are getting hotter each game that passes.

Austin Reaves was unstoppable against the Boston Celtics

Austin Reaves scored 32 points to help the Lakers defeat their biggest rivals, the Boston Celtics. The Lakers guard was so good that he even outscored Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown combined this Thursday night.
