The Los Angeles Lakers lost to the Denver Nuggets 113-111 in the Western Conference Finals. LeBron James finished his last game of the season with 40 points.

In the history of the NBA, no player older than the 38-year-old has scored 40 points in a playoff game. James is under contract with the Lakers for at least one more season, if he wants to do so, even one more. The future of German national team captain Dennis Schröder is also still unclear.
