Lakers fans go nuts after LeBron James posterizes Luke Kornet

The Los Angeles Lakers have been losing a track meet to the San Antonio Spurs over the first half of their NBA Cup quarterfinals clash. Saddled with lethargy, the Lakers find themselves down by 12, 70-58, heading into the halftime interval. But the momentum may be trending back towards the Purple and Gold’s side after LeBron James reminded everybody that he still got it by putting Luke Kornet on a poster.

With the Lakers making a run with a little less than a minute remaining in the second quarter, James found himself bringing the ball down in semi-transition. Marcus Smart set a brush screen, which James rejected, giving him the step on Devin Vassell. James, who’s about to turn 41 years of age in a little less than three weeks, decided not to just go up for a mere layup. He chose to climb the mountain that was Kornet and threw down a monster one-handed tomahawk, sending the crowd at Crypto.com Arena into a frenzy.

Never mind that the Lakers proceeded to allow two easy buckets after this play to fall down by double digits yet again. James showed that he has plenty of gas left in the tank, and not even sciatica or arthritis can stop the arguable GOAT of this sport.
