A spectacular performance from The King.
In case you haven’t seen LeBron James play over the last two decades, allow us to tell you that the Los Angeles Lakers forward is very good at basketball. At age 39 and in his 21st season in the NBA, James continues to dazzle on the court, and he did it again Wednesday night when he put the Purple & Gold on his back and carried them to a thrilling 116-112 come-from-behind victory.
Trailing by 21 points in the fourth quarter, LeBron took matters into his own hands and poured in 19 points in the final period. That was more than the 16 points the Clippers generated in the same quarter. The four-time league Most Valuable Player got hot from deep, hitting five 3-pointers in the fourth period, as he turned into a one-man wrecking machine.
