The Los Angeles Lakers had taken a 2–0 series lead.
Next, the two teams headed to Oklahoma.
They faced off against the Thunder in Game 3.

They had performed quite well in the first two games, and that alone was a blessing.

After that, the series returned to Oklahoma.
The Lakers had an especially tough time in this game.
Leaving aside everyone else's performance, Wang Yi himself had a terrible shooting night.
