The magic of the NBA playoffs continues. Ahead 0-2 in the series, OKC also managed to win the third act of the challenge with the Los Angeles Lakers (131-108 the final). Despite the support of their crowd, LeBron James and co. could do nothing against the reigning NBA Champions, now one step away from a pass to the conference finals.

In addition to the usual contribution of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (21 points), great proof of Ajay Mitchell who literally annihilated the Lakers with 24 points and 10 assists without a single lost ball. Bitterly mulled, in Los Angeles Lakers house, LeBron James, one step away from elimination. For King James, 19 points (7/19 shooting) and eight assists.

“I think the most important thing for me was to go out on the court with confidence. I know what I can do. When I take the field, I just want to fight play at my highest level, help the team win and play with freedom,” Ajay Mitchell’s own words reported by ESPN.

In the other challenge, Cleveland won Game 3 (116-109 the final) and reopened the series against Detroit. The Pistons are now ahead 2-1. Donovan Mitchell is spacey with 35 points on the scoreboard but the contribution of veteran James Harden, who closes with 19 valuable points, is also crucial.
