NBA Fans Were in Awe After LeBron James’s Big Night vs. Rockets
LeBron James put on a show during the Lakers’ Sunday night clash against the Rockets, helping Los Angeles pick up a 105-104 win.
James did it all across 40 minutes on the floor, scoring a game-high and season-high 37 points, to go with six rebounds, eight assists, and three steals.
The NBA’s oldest player showed no signs of slowing down during the dominant performance, as he once again got the upper hand in his matchup with Dillon Brooks, even hitting Houston’s forward with the “too small” gesture after getting a basket.
