Mike D'Antoni met separately with Mitch Kupchak and Jim Buss regarding the state of the team after a 48-point loss to the Los Angeles Clippers on Thursday night.

The Lakers plan to continue to assess the situation and are not inclined to make an in-season coaching change, according to sources.

Kupchak has maintained a strong working relationship with D'Antoni and has been pleased by the way the coach is keeping the team together as the losses mount.

The Lakers have planned to evaluate the coaching staff after the season.
