Lakers coach Darvin Ham was ecstatic after masterminding the team's first win of the season as they claimed a 121-110 win over Denver Nuggets on Monday.
“It’s great. It’s ironic, having started here as a coach and also having started in Denver as a player, that’s where I spent the majority of my rookie season," Ham said.
"And all the way back to my parents, everybody. To come from where I come from and to be sitting on that sideline, I like to go out pregame and sit on the sideline to just smell the popcorn, see all the people, the buzz that’s in the building.
"This is a phenomenal building, our fans were awesome tonight. They’re always awesome. Lakers Nation is strong. So I just really wanted to give them something to really be loud and proud about.”
