Despite having a 3-3 season record, the Los Angeles Lakers could be performing better with consistent health. Injuries have hampered the team, leaving Coach Darvin Ham with an incomplete roster.

The Lakers' significant offseason signing, point guard Gabe Vincent, faced criticism from fans for not standing out in the games he played. However, Vincent has been sidelined for three games, raising questions about the decision to let PG Dennis Schröder sign with the Toronto Raptors.

Schröder, who led his national team to a FIBA World Cup victory in the summer, is now making an impact with the Raptors. In his recent performance, he scored 24 points, grabbed 3 rebounds, and dished out 6 assists, helping Toronto defeat Victor Wembanyama's Spurs.

While Wemby had a strong showing with 20 points, 9 rebounds, and 4 assists, Schröder and the Raptors demonstrated the kind of performance the Lakers have been missing.

Gabe Vincent has been the new Dennis for coach Ham

Dennis Schröder played a significant role for the Lakers last season, but fans often criticized the amount of time he spent on the floor, particularly during off-nights. Now, Gabe Vincent has inherited that role, but he's yet to deliver a convincing performance in his Lakers tenure.
