The Lakers defeated the Jazz (128-117) in the last game of the regular season. LeBron James led the winners in scoring with 36 points.
It was also the last regular season game of the year 20 for the four-time NBA champion. He took to social media to share his reaction.
“Easter 🐣 Sunday’s Best!! My last regular season game in year 20 was fun fun fun!!!! To be continue folks! Love 👑🫡 #ThekidfromAKRON🤴🏾#KingMe♟️ #SFG🚀” James wrote on his Instagram post.
The Lakers finished seventh in the Western Conference and will have to earn their spot in the playoffs via the play-in tournament.
Los Angeles will face Minnesota there. A win will book the seven seed while a loss would mean another game against the winner of the Pelicans – Thunder game.
