The LA Lakers let go of Frank Vogel after a disappointing 2021-22 season
The Lakers' campaign was disappointing, to say the least. They finished 11th in the Western Conference standings and failed to qualify for the play-in tournament.
Given the amount of talent on their roster, no one expected the Lakers to perform that poorly. During the offseason, they were pegged as championship favorites after the addition of Russell Westbrook.
Unfortunately, winning was a struggle for the Lakers, and their coach was the first to bear the consequences.
Not long after the season ended, the Lakers fired Frank Vogel, who delivered them a championship in the 2020 bubble. Perhaps the most frustrating aspect of their season was how poor the team was defensively, even with a coach whose strength is supposedly defense.
Now that Vogel is out, there is a vacancy at the position of head coach, and the Lakers have started to hunt for a suitable candidate. It has been reported that they have set their sights on Ham, who once served as the Lakers' assistant coach from 2011 to 2013.
With the Lakers being a storied franchise, a championship will always be the goal, especially now that they have arguably the league's GOAT.
Health was a major issue for the Lakers as they hedged their bets on Anthony Davis being healthy. Unfortunately, the big man played only 40 games due to several injuries.
It will be interesting to see how things play out for the Lakers.
