The Los Angeles Lakers found their mojo once again, despite losing Game 1 of the first-round series against the Phoenix Suns. They have now locked in two consecutive wins and will be looking to bag the third one as well. As Game 4 nears, the Suns have a lot to take care of, otherwise all their hard work this season would have been for nothing.
The purple and gold fans breathed a big sigh of relief as LeBron James and Co. took the lead in a very important series. Any simple mistake could cost them a shot at a second straight title. However, there is still a long road ahead and before that, they have to seal their victory against the Suns.
In the third game, LeBron, Anthony Davis, and Dennis Schroder put up an incredible performance. Since Bron’s injury, he hasn’t played at the highest level, which is what initially cost them the first game. However, Game 3 was a testament to the fact that he has finally found his rhythm. He added 21 points, along with AD’s 34 and Schroder’s 20.

Chris Paul’s shoulder injury is costing the Suns heavily. If he doesn’t return to full form, the Suns could easily be kicked out of the first round itself. As the stakes become higher, the game will become more intense.

What to expect from this game?
The Suns are hoping that enough rest will help heal Paul’s injury, which is why he did not attend practice on Saturday. Without him, the dynamic of this series has taken a huge turn.
Even though AD has been listed as probable, he has made it clear that there is no way that he will be missing such a crucial game. The Lakers have a lot more talent on their roster, which gives them a big advantage. Expect this to be a tug of war that can’t be missed.
