Cologne – The Los Angeles Lakers started their semifinal duel in the North American professional basketball league NBA with a win. Led by the strong superstar Anthony Davis, the team prevailed on Friday (local time) with 126: 114 against the Denver Nuggets and thus leads in the best-of-seven series 1: 0. The second game will take place on Monday night.

Davis became the Lakers’ best thrower in Orlando, Florida, and the 27-year-old ended up with 37 points, four assists and ten rebounds. Superstar LeBron James contributed 15 points, twelve assists and six rebounds.

Theis and the Celtics already under pressure

The last time the Lakers had reached the final series of the Western Conference in 2010, the team around the NBA legend Kobe Bryant, who died in January, prevailed against the Phoenix Suns and then also won the final against the Boston Celtics. It was the last title for the franchise to date.

In the final of the Eastern Conference, national player Daniel Theis with the Celtics already has his back to the wall. The record champions are 2-0 down against the Miami Heat after two games. The next game of the second semi-final duel will take place on Sunday night.
