The Los Angeles Lakers were swept in the Western Conference Finals, and with that, they lost the chance to contend for the championship title in the NBA Finals vs. the Miami Heat in what would've been a repeat of the 2020 championship Finals.

Still, a Lakers legend was present in Game 3, and that is the showtime era Icon Magic Johnson who got the ticket from another Lakers legend, the former coach Pat Riley who is currently an executive with the Miami Heat.

After the game, Magic gave the keys for the Nuggets' victory against the Heat to take the 2-1 lead in Miami. “The Denver superstars were too much for the Heat tonight. Both Jokic and Murray had dominant performances and put up triple-doubles. First Jamal Murray with 34 points, 10 rebounds, and 10 assists, followed by Jokic with 32 points, 21 rebounds, and ten assists.” Wrote Magic.

Magic also added on his Twitter account, "The Nuggets beat the Heat up tonight from the opening tap. They were superb from the outside and were great in the paint! Christian Braun was a spark off the bench, giving the Nuggets 15 big points."

In the first half of the game, Magic Johnson was sitting next to a Miami Heat legend

"The first half of the game, I was hanging out with Miami Heat legend and 3-time NBA champion Dwyane Wade! I'm so proud of him, and I love him, his wife Gabrielle, and his family. His mother is very close to my mom and is a special lady. @DwyaneWade." Wrote Johnson about his night in Miami.
