Watch: LeBron James Gets Elbowed in The Chin by Jamal Murray

Things are getting really hot in Orlando as the Los Angeles Lakers are trying to win the third straight game against the Denver Nuggets. It’s a tough game for both teams and the Lakers were trailing Denver after taking the initial lead. Staying healthy is of key importance in the playoffs, and LeBron James got elbowed by Jamal Murray. His chin received a big hit. It was an unintentional elbow from Murray, but it was enough for fans to start panicking.

The Nuggets point guard was called for a Flagrant 1 Foul. To make things even more interesting, it’s worth mentioning that LeBron was Murray’s idol as a kid.

That’s a completely different topic right now as both players are trying to win the WFC and make the 2020 NBA Finals. The Nuggets are determined to prove doubters wrong and they played really great basketball this season. Nikola Jokic and his team even defeated the Los Angeles Clippers and sent Kawhi Leonard home. Jokic plays an aggressive game tonight, and he goes strong at the rim.

LeBron won’t stop after being elbowed by Murray

LeBron is trying to win his fourth championship. Murray has yet to win a ring. The same applies to Lakers big man Anthony Davis. He came to the rescue in Game 2. Davis’ buzzer-beater sealed the game and put the Lakers on top. Hitting a three-pointer is the perfect way to break a spell and win a game.

LA is two wins away from making the Finals, but Jokic and his teammates won’t let them win without a good fight. Analysts have made several predictions regarding the Western Conference Finals. Most of them agree that the Lakers will win the title. Denver looks great. However, shutting down the king of basketball and his great teammates is almost impossible.

Hopefully, this hit in the chin won’t affect LeBron’s status for the upcoming games. The Los Angeles Lakers need him healthy and sound to finish the playoff run. The team hasn’t won a title since Kobe Bryant’s time. LeBron came to town to change that.
