At 35 years old, LeBron James can still remind us that he could have won an NBA dunk contest if he had entered, and that he’d probably STILL win it now.
On Thursday night, in a 121-111 loss to the Houston Rockets, he was fed the ball on a breakaway with no one even close, and threw down a reverse windmill with authority. Don’t think for one second that it wasn’t an awesome dunk. It’s gorgeous.
That’s especially true when you see a photo snapped of James in mid-flight. It’s photo of the year-level stuff and it’s only February!
Here’s the snap and the dunk:
