LeBron James beats buzzer with jumper from near midcourt (Video)

NBA: Preseason-Sacramento Kings at Los Angeles Lakers

It may only be preseason, but LeBron James is already hitting shots from way downtown.

Wednesday’s exhibition game against the Warriors at T-Mobile Arena had a regular-season feel, as James dazzled on a few particular plays, bringing the crowd to its feet.

One particular play of note came in the waning seconds of the first half, when he pulled up and drained a jumper from just inside midcourt. And, he, of course, celebrated by striking a pose.

James also made an acrobatic layup earlier in the second quarter — setting himself up with a three-point play opportunity. That entertaining moment resulted in him flexing to celebrate.

We can’t wait until the Lakers and Warriors meet on Christmas Day — when the games actually count.
