In the first quarter, just five minutes into the game, James had the ball close to midcourt when he saw an opportunity. Dashing towards the basket, he raced past three Portland defenders, then elected to leap over the last two, with Jusuf Nurkić being the ultimate victim of his posterization.

The play happened in an instant, but thankfully, AP photographer

"I knew it was going to be a good one that's going to be shown for a long time," James said. "I was more excited to look over and see my teammates, how excited they were. So that one will last forever in my highlights from my career, even when I'm done."
