For the first time ever, the Nuggets are headed to the NBA Finals. Denver completed a sweep over Los Angeles with a thrilling win in Game 4 on Monday night. Superstar center Nikola Jokic came up clutch with 30 points, 14 rebounds and 13 assists, including the game-winning bucket with less than a minute remaining. LeBron James seemed poised to steal the headlines after dropping 31 points in the first half. It helped the Lakers take a commanding 15-point halftime lead. But Denver fought back, outscoring LA 36-16 in the third quarter to wrest control of the game. MORE: A chaotic ending culminated with a bizarre sequence in the final minute. With the Nuggets leading by two, James tossed up a difficult attempt as the shot clock expired. It hit the side of the backboard and never touched the rim, but no whistle came from the officials for a shot clock violation. Michael Porter Jr. then appeared to travel, but again the officials let play continue. James ultimately had his last-second shot blocked by Aaron Gordon to snuff out any lingering hopes of a title in his 20th NBA season. The Nuggets will now move on to play for an NBA championship. Their likely opponent will be the Heat, who hold a 3-0 series lead over the Celtics in the Eastern Conference Finals. That series will begin on June 1, leaving a long break before Denver returns to the floor. MORE: The Sporting News was tracking all the key moments from Game 4 of the 2023 Western Conference Finals.
