NBA Playoffs Western Conference Semifinals 2026
The No. 1 Seed Defending Champions Oklahoma City Thunder had themselves a quick four-game sweep of the Phoenix Sun in the first round of action and are now gearing up to shoot down the No. 4 Seed Los Angeles Lakers who have been pushing the envelope with LeBron and their depleted squad. That being said, the Lakers are not to be taken lightly. The Thunder will have to stick to the script and stay focused on the task at hand. The road to the NBA Finals is the only destination.
The No. 2 Seed San Antonio Spurs had themselves a warm up in the first round by dispatching the Portland Trail Blazers in 5 and are now looking to do the same to the No. 6 Seed Minnesota Timberwolves who are possibly coming in shorthanded without their main man Anthony Edwards but I do anticipate the Wolves to at least stay competitive for as long as the series continues.
Tune in this Monday night May 4, 2026, for Game one of the NBA Western Conference Semifinals.
