Lakers insider makes his feelings clear on JJ Redick's reluctance in tweaking starting 5: "This is getting Darvin-ish"

Lakers insider Anthony Irwin was not pleased with LA's starting lineup against the San Antonio Spurs. The 5-4 outcome in their last few games had analysts believing JJ Redick would ring in changes with the starters, but the latest move saw Irwin name-drop former HC Darvin Ham known for persisting with his same combinations

Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Irwin responded to The Athletic's Jovan Buha's tweet on the starters, saying:

"This is getting Darvin-ish."

All eyes will now be on how the Lakers fare after basketball action resumes in the city after the wildfires ravaged it. As for Irwin remains to be seen if the Ham pattern works in the Purple and Gold's favor this time.
