However, the LA-based NBA side overturned the deficit and won the game by 105-101. It resulted in a hilarious reaction from Alex Morgan, who took a jab at her husband’s prediction. She took to Twitter and wrote, “3rd quarter Warriors were up by 12, Servando really said, ‘this game is over’ and I laughed in his face. Thank you, sm @Lakers, for the backup.”
It looks like Carrasco made a massive jinx, and Morgan playfully trolled him with the tweet. LeBron James starred for the Lakers with 27 points. Stephen Curry shone for the Warriors with 31 points. King James had a last laugh in the game, and so did Alex Morgan.
