Eight teams are still vying for the 2023 NBA title, but that number could drop to six in less than 48 hours. The Lakers withstood some scoring runs from the Warriors on Monday night, but stayed close enough for Lonnie Walker IV to play the role of hero for host Los Angeles. The Lakers lead that series 3-1 and could knock out the defending champions Wednesday night in San Francisco.
Meanwhile, the Jimmy Butler showcase rolled on as the Heat held off the Knicks for most of their Game 4. The scene for Wednesday’s Game 5 is back at Madison Square Garden, but the best barometer of success in this series is whether Butler plays. Simply put, he plays, Miami wins.
The two other series resume on Tuesday-evening with two Game 5s, with the Celtics hosting the 76ers and the Nuggets hosting the Suns. Both series are at two.
