LA Lakers defeated Miami Heat 106-93 in Game Six to clinch their 17th NBA Championship. It was the inspiring LeBron James who led the Lakers to their first championship since 2010. He was named MVP in the Finals. During the off-season, the Lakers had hired Frank Vogel as their new head coach and they opened 2019/20 with a 17-2 record, matching the best start in franchise history.
