Shannon Sharpe Predicts That Lakers Will Beat Thunder In Playoffs

The Los Angeles Lakers looked fantastic on Saturday night, beating their long-time rivals, the Denver Nuggets, on the road.

It was a great night for several stars, most notably Luka Doncic, who went off with 32 points, 10 rebounds, and seven assists over his old friend Nikola Jokic.

Everything about the Lakers, from the offense to the defense to the energy, was all top-notch, and fans loved what they saw.

Shannon Sharpe was blown away and made a bold claim on Monday’s “First Take.”

Speaking of the Lakers’ potential playoff matchup with the Oklahoma City Thunder, Sharpe said LA would win.

“OKC, KFC, UFC, Lakers in five,” Sharpe said.

"OKC, KFC, UFC, Lakers in five."
