Lakers finally have NBA Championship depth – Darvin Ham

Los Angeles Lakers head coach Darvin Ham told ESPN that the Lakers finally have the depth to earn another NBA Championship, admitting their roster was a touch shallow during their 2022-23 season.

They have moved proactively ahead of the new campaign, retaining key […]
