Nuggets sweep Lakers in thrilling Game 4 victory; reach NBA Finals for first time in franchise history

The Denver Nuggets are headed to the NBA Finals for the first time in franchise after sweeping LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers with their Game 4 win.

Facing a 3-0 deficit, LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers got off to a hot start on their home floor. But their effort just wasn’t enough to avoid getting swept by the Denver Nuggets in the Western Conference Finals. 

Thanks to a 36-16 third quarter, the Nuggets stormed back from a 15-point deficit at halftime to beat the Lakers, 113-111, in Game 4 to win the conference and cement their place in the 2023 NBA Finals. 

It’s a historic victory for the top seed in the West, as the franchise has never made it to the NBA Finals, let alone won the Larry O’Brien Trophy.
