Lakers vs. Warriors live score, updates, highlights from Game 4 of NBA Playoffs
After their worst NBA playoff loss in 2023, the Warriors are looking to bounce back in Game 4 of their Western Conference semifinals game against the Lakers.
Los Angeles dominated Golden State in Game 3, winning by a 30-point margin and capturing a 2-1 lead in the series. The Lakers put on one of their best defensive performances of the season, limiting the Warriors to 39.6 percent shooting from the field.
“We’re one of the best defensive teams in the league, if not the best,” said Lakers star LeBron James. “In order for us to reach our full potential, we have to defend at a high level. No team in this league tests you more on this side than Golden State, so that keeps us on alert for 48 minutes.”
Can Golden State rediscover its scoring touch on Monday night? Or will Los Angeles have a 3-1 lead?
