With a current record of 10 wins and 11 losses, Lakers sit at the 7th place in the Western Conference, which would mean having to go through the tie-in tournament to reach a playoff spot.

According to a report from Marc Stein, in LA there's pressure rising on head coach Frank Vogel to get better results as soon as possible.

Lakers have very limited financial flexibility to make moves on the market, so if result won't improve soon, the only way to change the situation might be to find a new head coach.

Vogel became the head coach of the Lakers in 2019 and led the team to the NBA title in his first season. Last season the Lakers were eliminated in the first-round of the Western Conference playoffs.
