Thunder Crush Lakers 108-90 in Game 1, Holmgren Goes for 24 and 12
Luka Doncic still hasn't played a minute since hurting his hamstring 33 days ago. The Lakers need him. They got Game 1 of the West Semis without him on Tuesday and it went exactly how you'd expect — 108-90, Thunder, never close.
Chet Holmgren went 24 points and 12 rebounds and looked unguardable in the half-court. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was efficient and inevitable. LeBron James scored 27 for a Lakers team that has to be wondering when, if ever, Luka comes back. Brian Windhorst on ESPN this week: "He is not close."
Game 2 is tonight at 9:30 PM ET in OKC on TNT. Until Luka steps onto a court, this series isn't a series.
