LeBron James of the Los Angeles Lakers got the crowd cheering at the end of Sunday’s All-Star Game when he nailed the game-winning bucket right as the shot clock ticked down to the final seconds.
The shot, which he said resembles something from Michael Jordan, was one of the better ones he has taken in some time.
Understandably, NBA fans erupted when King James sank it.
Amazing bro!!! Unbelievable feeling 🙏🏾✊🏾👑 https://t.co/AVJHVGADdP

But even James was jazzed about his point too, tweeting, “Amazin bro!!! Unbelievable feeling,” after the game.
His shot certainly was incredible and it comes at a great time in his career when he is facing perhaps his biggest challenges yet.
All-Star Level LeBron
Over the last 18 years, All-Star Weekend has centered around James and he is always up to the task of delivering for the fans.
He gives interviews, leads teams, and generally gets the crowd pumped up.
This year was no different, even though James is playing for a team that is lackluster, to put it gently.
The Lakers got off to a rocky start this year and now they are struggling to even make it into the postseason.
This is happening even though James is having a wildly successful season, even at 37 years old.
In many ways, he is looking downright superhuman but even he is having a hard time dragging the Lakers across the finish line.
Perhaps his performance last night will get the rest of his team fired up about finishing the season strong and perhaps avoiding the play-in tournament.
Even if that doesn’t happen, James’ final shot from this year’s All-Star Game will always be another great example of just how stellar an NBA player James really is, no matter who he is playing for.
