Lakers' Search for Ham's Successor: Becky Hammon Tops the List
As the Los Angeles Lakers embark on their search for a new head coach to replace the recently departed Darvin Ham, one name stands out above the rest: Becky Hammon. The current head coach of the two-time defending WNBA champion Las Vegas Aces, Hammon has long been considered a trailblazer in the world of professional basketball coaching.
A Hall of Famer and six-time WNBA All-Star during her illustrious playing career, Hammon transitioned seamlessly into the coaching ranks, spending eight years as an assistant under the tutelage of the legendary Gregg Popovich with the San Antonio Spurs.
