The Lakers dropped 77 points on the Trail Blazers in the first half on Friday night, and with Los Angeles in command in the second quarter, LeBron James decided to have a bit of fun with his teammates after being fouled under the basket.
James drove to the bucket and was fouled by Kent Bazemore as he tried to pull off an acrobatic finish, and the 34-year-old took a hard fall to the floor. The Lakers rushed to James’ aid – but LeBron remained motionless on the floor. From the broadcast angle, it seemed like James may have suffered an injury on the play.
James, was fine, fortunately, and a different camera angle revealed that he had his tongue stuck out and was pretending to be dead. LeBron tried to keep himself from laughing for as long as possible, and was dragged off the court by his teammates.
