LeBron James

Fans react to Luka Doncic recreating legendary LeBron-Wade photo

LeBron James and Luka high-five after a play.

The Los Angeles Lakers had a memorable night on Saturday, highlighted by a big win over the Memphis Grizzlies, led by a historic performance from L.A.’s big three. The dominant performance also included a sweet fastbreak play from Luka Doncic and LeBron James that was eerily similar to another iconic moment in James’ career.

Near the end of the second quarter, Doncic split two defenders on a fastbreak before dishing a no-look pass back to James for a massive dunk. The moment produced a photo reminiscent of the iconic look-away photo that James created with Dwyane Wade back in Miami.

For the most part, fans loved it, immediately nothing the connection.

James and Doncic frequently push the pace on offense, so we’re likely to get more moments like this in the future.
