The Los Angeles Lakers have a long history of outstanding buzzer-beaters, especially in the playoffs. Be it Kobe Bryant, Magic Johnson, Jerry West or even beloved role players such as Robert Horry and Derek Fisher, this franchise has lived for clutch moments in the playoffs.

The 2020 playoffs took place inside the bubble in Orlando, Florida, and the Lakers were rolling, having dispatched both Portland and Houston in five games. The Western Conference Finals saw them unexpectedly face off with the Denver Nuggets, who had survived back-to-back 3-1 deficits, including defeating the heavily favored Los Angeles Clippers in the second round to get to this point.
