Coach Darvin Ham has decided to stop the rumors that had Rui Hachimura as a starter tonight after having a great playoff run and an impressive performance in the previous game's fourth quarter stopping the Joker.

The rumors had Hachimura starting for D'Angelo Russell, but the team was afraid that with that decision, they could lose the SG at the end of the season, so it seems that they didn't want him to be mad, and he is starting tonight after all.

Dennis Schroder is also going to the bench, as the starting five is the one that coach Darvin has used most of the last stretch of the regular season and in the playoffs.

D'Angelo Russell, Jarred Vanderbilt, Austin Reaves, LeBron James, and Anthony Davis are the starting five that Ham trusts can get the job done tonight. So Darvin again believes in Vando to stop the Nuggets star Nikola Jokic.

Rui Hachimura stopped Jokic in the last quarter in Game 1

Most believed that Hachimura was going to start tonight as he was the only Lakers to stop Nikola Jokic in the last quarter to give freedom to Anthony Davis to be offensive, helping him end the night with 40 scored points.
