Leonardo DiCaprio had the perfect reaction to LeBron James' three-pointer during Saturday's must-win game for the Los Angeles Lakers in their playoff series against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
LeBron and the Lakers were no match for the defending NBA champions in the first two games of their second-round series, which is no surprise with Luka Doncic (hamstring) still on the sidelines.
Midway through the second quarter of Sunday's clash, James drilled a three-pointer over Jaylin Williams to tie the game at 44 apiece. ESPN's cameras then cut to the Titanic star, whose reaction said it all:
DiCaprio is among the prominent Hollywood stars who regularly attend Lakers games at Crypto.com Arena. Noah Lyle and Jaafar Jackson are among the other celebrities at Saturday's game:

No team in NBA history has ever come back to win a series after trailing 3-0. Without Doncic, Saturday's game is an absolute must-win for the Lakers.

The defending NBA champions nearly held off the San Antonio Spurs (62-20) to finish with the NBA's best record in the regular season (64-18).
As expected, the Phoenix Suns were hardly a threat to the Thunder in the opening round, with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander leading his team to an easy sweep. It's been more of the same against the Lakers thus far, with Oklahoma City winning the first two games by 18-point margins.
We'll see if the Lakers can claw back and make it a series, but it already looks like the Thunder will cruise to a second straight Western Conference Finals appearance.
