LeBron James Reacts to Andrew Wiggins' Monster Dunk

The Golden State Warriors and Memphis Grizzlies are amidst a crucial Game 2 that could shift the tide for the entire series. Should the Warriors win, they would take a 2-0 lead back home, with a chance to make quick work of the Grizzlies. Should Memphis answer back, the series would be tied at 1-1, making it anybody's series.
This game began chippy, with Dillon Brooks being ejected for a flagrant 2 foul just minutes into the first quarter. The intensity only picked up from there, with both sides playing with a heightened sense of urgency. Andrew Wiggins, who has experienced an up and down postseason, threw down a ferocious dunk in the 2nd quarter that had the NBA world buzzing.
