The Los Angeles Lakers are set to take on the Minnesota Timberwolves in the first round of the NBA Playoffs on Saturday. LA clinched the third seed in the Western Conference, securing home court advantage for the opening round as they aim to reach the conference semifinals for the first time in two seasons.

Luka Dončić debuts his postseason showmanship in Lakers gold against a familiar opponent in Anthony Edwards and the Timberwolves.
