SAN DIEGO -- LeBron James' first game with his third franchise opened up with a pair of highlight-worthy plays in the Los Angeles Lakers' preseason debut against the Denver Nuggets on Sunday.
True to form, James' first tally in the stat book at a Laker was an assist off a no-look, wrap-around bounce pass that found Brandon Ingram for a dunk.
Less than a minute later, following a Rajon Rondo offensive rebound and pitch out, James stroked a 26-foot 3-pointer with 9:12 remaining in the first quarter, securing his first bucket with his new team.
