This victory breaks a seven-year curse where no champion has advanced past the second round since the Kevin Durant Warriors in 2019. The Thunder, now the first repeat champ to reach this stage since the Warriors in 2018, have remained undefeated with an 8-0 record through two playoff sweeps. In Game 4, the Thunder faced their first deficit of the postseason, trailing by five in the fourth quarter before Shai Gilgeous-Alexander took over with 35 points and 8 assists, securing the clutch victory. Ajay Mitchell stepped up in the absence of Jalen Williams, scoring 28 points on 12-19 shooting, while Chet Holmgren contributed 16 points and 9 rebounds. The Lakers, led by LeBron James 24 points, Austin Reaves 27, and Rui Hachimuras 25, including a crucial four-point play, fell short in their bid to extend the series. The Thunder head into the conference finals unstoppable, aiming for another championship and leaving the LeBron era in LA with a bitter sweep.
