The Purple and Gold lost five straight games at the start of their 2022-23 campaign, a record that predicted a repetition of the poor season James and co. had last year. However, the team made some blockbuster trades before the trade deadline in February, following which they delivered some top notch performances regularly.

The Lakers earned their deserved spot in the play-in tournament, where they managed to get the better of the Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday night. In an enthralling game, the Lakers won in OT with LeBron James dropping 30 pts to secure their playoff berth against the Los Angeles Clippers.
