The Lakers are in some real trouble right now. Losers of 10 out of their last 15, their season is heading down a dark path. LeBron James is still out after suffering a groin injury on Christmas Day against the Warriors and Lonzo Ball won’t be returning for a while after suffering a nasty looking ankle injury. Combine those 2 injuries with inconsistency from the rest of the young guys and it’s easy to see why the Lakers aren’t looking so hot. Today however, more news came out, and it isn’t news you’d like to hear during a losing streak.
ESPN’s Jackie MacMullan joined Brian Windhorst on Windhorst’s podcast and delivered some news on what LeBron James’ camp wants to see change.
“It’s clear to me, and probably to you, Brian, that LeBron’s camp would prefer a coaching change—they’re not too subtle about that,” MacMullan said per transcribed remarks from Score NBA news editor Chicco Nacion.
“Not LeBron, but all the people around LeBron. There’s plenty of them and they’ve made it known. I don’t think this is a shock, is it?”
Of course with LeBron, comes reactions from everyone. Twitter made sure to have extra fun with this news and they didn’t disappoint.
