2026 NBA Mock Draft: Predicting Round 1

The Lakers are heading to the Western Conference Semifinals after a defensive masterclass in H-Town. Behind a vintage 28-point performance from LeBron James and a glass-cleaning clinic by Deandre Ayton, Los Angeles ignited a ruthless 27-3 surge to bury the Rockets 98-78. Despite a late-series scare, the veteran-led Lakers slammed the door on Houston to secure a 4-2 series victory, officially setting the stage for a heavyweight second-round showdown against the top-seeded Oklahoma City Thunder.

King Stays King: Lakers’ 27-3 Surge Buries Rockets to Clinch Round 2 Date with OKC

There was no historic comeback in Houston. Despite facing a raucous crowd and a determined Rockets team, the Los Angeles Lakers secured a dominant 98-78 victory in Game 6 to advance to the Western Conference Semifinals. Led by an ageless 28-point performance from LeBron James and a suffocating defense that held Houston to a season-low point total, JJ Redick earned his first playoff series win as head coach. The Lakers now turn their attention to a heavyweight second-round clash with the top-seeded Oklahoma City Thunder.

Lakers' defense stonewalls Rockets, 98-78, to advance to second round

After a grueling month-long recovery from an oblique injury, Austin Reaves returned to the starting lineup just in time to help the Los Angeles Lakers dismantle the Houston Rockets in Game 6. Despite the ongoing absence of scoring champion Luka Doncic, Reaves provided the offensive spark and defensive grit needed to secure a 98-78 series-clinching victory. With the first round behind them, the Lakers now turn their attention to a heavyweight second-round matchup against the defending champion Oklahoma City Thunder.

Reaves' return to starting lineup fuels Lakers closeout win

The Los Angeles Lakers didn’t leave anything to chance in Game 6, using a dominant second-quarter surge and a masterclass from 41-year-old LeBron James to eliminate the Houston Rockets with a 98–78 win. Behind James' 28 points and a sharp-shooting performance from Rui Hachimura, the Lakers locked down defensively and secured a wire-to-wire victory to close the series 4–2. L.A. now shifts its focus to the second round, where a high-stakes matchup with the defending champion Oklahoma City Thunder awaits.
