Los Angeles Lakers traveled to Washington DC to face Kyle Kuzma's Wizards. Kuzma was one of LeBron's key teammates back in that 2020 championship in the Bubble. The King continues to play on a very high level in this last stretch of games in the regular season.

The 4-time NBA champion has been phenomenal on the last part of this campaign, even with him admiting that he doesn't have much fuel left in the tank, James continues to impact heavily every aspect of the game at 39 years of age.

Here the Los Angeles Lakers put LeBron on an iso-play with Kyle Kuzma defending him. James sizes him up and then dribbles to baseline and fakes the shot. The move was so quick and perfectly executed that Kuzma just went flying out of the screen, leaving the King wide open for an easy three. James' balance to be able to plant both feet and stop after that explosive first step is phenomenal.
