LAKERS ARE COOKED?! 😳 Thunder Take 2-0 Series Lead

The Oklahoma City Thunder continue to dominate the playoffs, defeating the Lakers 125-107 to take a commanding 2-0 series lead in the Western Conference semifinals. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Chet Holmgren each scored 22 points, while OKC’s young core once again overwhelmed Los Angeles with speed, defense, and energy. Ajay Mitchell added 20 points off the bench, and the defending champions improved to 6-0 this postseason. The Lakers were again without Luka Doncic, who remains out indefinitely with a strained hamstring. Austin Reaves led Los Angeles with 31 points, while LeBron James added 23, but OKC took control in the third quarter after a heated sequence involving Gilgeous-Alexander and Reaves resulted in a flagrant foul review. Even with SGA briefly leaving the game in foul trouble, the Thunder exploded on a 32-15 run to break the game open and never looked back. Game 3 shifts to Los Angeles on Saturday as the Lakers now face major pressure to avoid falling into a 3-0 hole. #NBA #Thunder #Lakers #ShaiGilgeousAlexander #LeBronJames #NBAPlayoffs
