With his team needing a bucket, LeBron let it fly … which was fitting considering he shot the ball practically from LAX.
Down by one with less than six minutes left, James pulled up from the halfcourt logo, firing an attempt that spiraled around the rim and throughout he net.
“He was down over there by [ESPN broadcaster] Mark Jackson on that shot, wasn’t he?” Tyson Chandler laughed. “When he gets in a zone, he’s just one of those special talents that you love to play with and hate to play against.”
According to NBA tracking data, this 36-footer was the 3rd-farthest shot made in LeBron James' career.
