Nuggets Suns Series Schedule: Lakers Face Uphill Battle Against Denver

The Los Angeles Lakers are facing an uphill battle in their playoff series against the Denver Nuggets after falling behind 3-0. The Nuggets took Game 3 with a 112-105 win, thanks in part to Aaron Gordon's dominant performance of 29 points.

Despite the strong production from Anthony Davis and LeBron James, who scored 33 and 26 points respectively, the Lakers struggled to find their rhythm on offense. They shot just 18.5% from three-point range, making only five of 27 attempts. D'Angelo Russell was unable to contribute, going scoreless in seven shots.

The Lakers are now on the brink of elimination, with Game 4 scheduled for Saturday. If they fail to win, their season will come to an end, as no NBA team has ever come back from a 3-0 deficit in playoff history.

With their backs against the wall, the Lakers will need to regroup and find a way to overcome their struggles on offense if they hope to prolong their season. However, with the odds stacked against them, it may be an uphill battle too difficult to overcome.
