Lakers vs Nuggets Western Conference Finals Game 5: Lakers vs Nuggets team news and preview

With their 1-3 deficit, the Nuggets are on the brink of elimination for the third consecutive time this postseason. Anthony Davis scored a team-high 34-points during the team's 114-108 Game 4 victory, while LeBron James added 26 points, 9 rebounds and 8 assists. If they win, this will be the Lakers first NBA Final in a decade. The last time it happened, late Lakers legend Kobe Bryant led the team to their 16th franchise title. 

"We played great down the stretch; we played great overall," Davis said after the game. "There's still some things we've got to fix if we want to put this thing away." However, the 27-year-old guard is listed as questionable with an ankle injury. If Davis doesn't play, the Nuggets might make their expected comeback, pushing a Game 6. On the other, Jamal Murray scored 32 points for the Nuggets, which included a Michael Jordan-style layup. Jerami Grant added 17 points.
