In the Western Conference first-round playoffs, the No. 4 seed Los Angeles Lakers advanced past the No. 5 Houston Rockets with a dominant 98-78 Game 6 road win on May 1, clinching the series 4-2 after Houston's 99-93 Game 5 victory forced a closeout. LeBron James delivered 28 points, eight rebounds, and seven assists, complemented by Rui Hachimura's 21 points on five threes, while LA's defense limited the Rockets to 32% field-goal shooting and a season-low 78 points. The short-handed Rockets, missing key contributors to injuries, mounted a comeback from a 3-1 deficit but couldn't overcome the Lakers' playoff experience and home-court reversal momentum from the regular season's 53-29 finish. Lakers now face Oklahoma City in the semifinals Tuesday.
