The Oklahoma City Thunder will host the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday night in Oklahoma City.
A spectacular dunk by LeBron James during the game has now gone viral online.
After steаling the ball, D’Angelo Russell tossed it to James, who slammed the ball home with his left hand.
James is still one of the league’s top dunkers despite being 38 years old.
His statistics for the 18 games leading up to tonight’s game were as follows: 25.1 points, 7.6 rebounds, 6.3 assists, and 1.4 steals per game on 55.8% field shooting and 38.8% three-point shooting.
With an 11-8 record after 19 games, the Lakers have earned the seventh seed in the Western Conference.
They just defeated the Detroit Pistons 133-107 in Michigan (on Wednesday), and their current 10-game winning streak stands at 7-3.
With a 9/19 field goal percentage and a 2/6 three-point percentage in 29 minutes of play, James accumulated 25 points, 8 boards, and 3 assists.
James has guided the Lakers to the postseason thrice during his 21st season in the NBA, his sixth with the team.
They advanced to the Western Conference Finals the previous season and won the NBA title in 2020.
On Saturday night, the Lakers will play host to the Rockets from Houston after their game against the Thunder.
While they have a 7-2 record while playing at home, they have a 4-6 record when playing away from their stadium.
