Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James was simply in disbelief by what Kyrie Irving just pulled off during the Dallas Mavericks’ win against the Phoenix Suns on Thursday.
For those who missed it, Irving undoubtedly had the play of the day when he attacked the rim past three defenders and finished with an insane layup over Eric Gordon. What made it even more spectacular was the fact that the Mavericks guard switched hands mid-air in order to avoid getting blocked.
After seeing Kyrie Irving’s tough finish, LeBron James quickly took it to social media to heap praise on his former teammate. The Lakers superstar expressed could only be amazed by the wild move, noting that he thought Irving finished it with his left hand, only to see the replays displaying the star guard changing hands while on air and finishing the move with his right hand.
“OMG!!!!! At first glance I thought he it with the left, which would have still be tough but switching hands is OFD!!!!!!!” LeBron wrote on his Instagram Story.
