Taurean Prince gets honest, the reason why he chose the Lakers despite having other teams interested

The Los Angeles Lakers had a great offseason that different players are battling for the last starting role available in coach Darvin Ham's lineup for the beginning of the regular season which will have the rematch vs. the Denver Nuggets.

Three players have been named as the front runners for the role, Rui Hachimura, Jarred Vanderbilt, and Taurean Prince. Prince is the only out of the three who is new to the team, still, he must be impressing Ham and his coaching staff to be considered becoming a starter over Hachimura and Vando.

Taurean Prince stated he had many options from other teams, but chose the Lakers, giving credit to the Lakers coaching staff, and primarily Darvin Ham due to his relationship with him.

Prince, Wood, and other players so far have credited Ham as a lead recruiter for the Lakers. This comes to prove that coach Darvin is great with players and knows how to bring the best out of them.
