NBA Twitter reacts to Lakers hiring Darvin Ham as head coach

On Friday, the Los Angeles Lakers hired Darvin Ham to be their next head coach.

Ham has never been a head coach in the NBA before, but he has an extensive history as an assistant coach with the Milwaukee Bucks, Atlanta Hawks and even the Lakers themselves.

Many around the league think highly of him as a strong leader who has outstanding communication skills.

Across Twitter, people reacted in a mostly positive way to the news of the Lakers hiring Ham, although there was a bit of humor about him joining a team that had just finished a disastrous season.

But overall, just about everyone is lauding the move.
