LOS ANGELES -- The Lakers hit the halfway mark of the season with a 112-105 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Monday, and in Game No. 41, coach Darvin Ham went back to the starting lineup he opened the season with.

LeBron James and Anthony Davis were flanked by Austin Reaves, D'Angelo Russell and Taurean Prince to start the game against Oklahoma City, one of 11 different starting units that Ham has implemented this season and one he plans to continue to trot out.

"Just wanted to put as much skill and shot-making on the floor around our two captains," Ham explained after the game. "And those five, they've been pretty much our most consistent guys throughout the season thus far. So just put them together.

"For the foreseeable future, that's going to be our lineup, barring any type of injury."
