Lakers clinched their Western Conference first-round playoff series against the Rockets 4-2 with a commanding 98-78 Game 6 rout on May 1, fueled by LeBron James' 28 points and Rui Hachimura's strong support, propelling trader consensus to 100% implied probability for Los Angeles. After building a 3-0 lead with wins in Games 1-3, including an overtime thriller in Game 3, the Lakers withstood Houston's resilient comeback victories in Games 4 and 5 to advance to the semifinals versus Oklahoma City Thunder—their first playoff series win in three years. With the outcome official per NBA records, no realistic scenarios remain to alter resolution barring extraordinary appeals or forfeits.
