The Warriors have to win the game to stay alive in the playoffs.
Stephen Curry #30 of the Golden State Warriors drives to the basket against LeBron James #6 and Lonnie Walker IV #4 of the Los Angeles Lakers during the second quarter in game five of the Western Conference Semifinal Playoffs.With their backs flat against the proverbial wall, the Golden State Warriors handled business in Game 5 of the NBA's Western Conference semifinals and beat the Los Angeles Lakers 121-106 at Chase Center.
During Game 5, Steph Curry led the team with 27 points but got some big help from his supporting cast. Forwards Andrew Wiggins and Draymond Green posted series-highs for points, with 25 and 20, respectively, but Dubs fans had to be disappointed with the work of Klay Thompson and Jordan Poole, who combined for 21.
Friday's game will be arguably an even taller task for the Warriors, as they walk into LA's Crypto.com Arena, where the Lakers have yet to lose a game during the 2023 playoffs. Steve Kerr and Warriors fans alike will be crossing their fingers for another mythic appearance from"Game 6 Klay."
