James made an insane no-look pass early in the second quarter after a turnover by the Jazz around the eight-minute mark.
The four-time NBA champion grabbed the ball following the turnover and sprinted upcourt before throwing the no-look pass to teammate Jaxson Hayes for the easy dunk.
NBA fans rushed to social media with reactions to the ridiculous pass from the King, prompting this fan to proclaim: “The league is literally just too easy for him!”
Another fan suggested: “Hate him or love himβ¦ got to Respect Him! Lebron doing this in year 21.. we will never see this in our lifetime!.”
A third said: “When Bron is done… I am done, just won’t be the same.”
A fourth expressed: “Best player in the world, and it’s not close.
This season is going to be fun.”
And a fifth emphasized: “That’s why he’s the GOAT. What a pass.”
James is fresh off breaking another NBA record when he became the first player in league history to reach 39,000 career points during their game against Utah.
And if setting a new NBA scoring record wasn’t enough, James also moved up to seventh all-time in three-pointers on Tuesday, passing Vince Carter.
The Lakers went 4-0 in the NBA in-season tournament and guaranteed the team a home game in the quarterfinals despite going 3-5 before it started.
The quarterfinals will take place on December 4-5, with winners advancing to semi-final games on December 7 and a championship match on December 9 in Las Vegas.
