NBA playoffs in Las Vegas

In 1992, the Portland Trail Blazers and Los Angeles Lakers played an NBA playoff game in Las Vegas. Game 4 of the Western Conference first round was originally set for the Los Angeles Forum. It was moved to the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas at short notice amid the Rodney King riots. The Trail Blazers won 102-76, eliminating the Lakers 3 games to 1. Clyde Drexler scored 26 points for Portland while Danny Ainge added 19. It was the last playoff game of the four major sports to be played in Las Vegas before the Golden Knights beat the Los Angeles Kings 1-0 on Wednesday.
