LeBron James led the Los Angeles Lakers to a 110-106 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans, clinching a playoff spot in the Western Conference play-in tournament.

James delivered a stellar performance, scoring 23 points with nine assists and nine rebounds.

Reflecting on the achievement, LeBron stated, “Securing a playoff spot after a tough season feels fantastic. I’m proud of our team’s resilience and determination.”

The game also featured Zion Williamson’s NBA postseason debut, where he scored 40 points and grabbed 11 rebounds. Despite his efforts, Williamson exited the game with an injury after helping tie the score at 95, visibly frustrated as he left the court.

Key contributions from Anthony Davis and DeAngelo Russell sealed the Lakers’ win. Davis added 20 points and 15 rebounds, while Russell scored 21 points, including five crucial 3-pointers. Davis commented on the game’s intensity, praising the team’s exceptional teamwork and determination.

The Lakers now prepare to face the Denver Nuggets in the first round of the playoffs, setting up a rematch of last season’s Western Conference finals. Meanwhile, the Pelicans await the outcome of the play-in game between the Golden State Warriors and the Sacramento Kings.

The Lakers were successful from beyond the arc, making 14 of 35 attempts, while the Pelicans made 9 of 29. Despite Williamson’s efforts, his teammates, including Brandon Ingram and CJ McCollum, struggled throughout the game.

Safe to say LeBron and AD are motivated to face the Nuggets after all their trash talk 😈
