Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James needed just one more rebound to record his second consecutive triple-double.
With two minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, the 39-year-old star pulled down his tenth board of the game against the Toronto Raptors. Immediately after grabbing the rebound, the four-time NBA Finals MVP pointed at a fan who was watching the game.
James was clearly aware of his accomplishment, which actually marked the second game in a row that he was able to achieve as much. But it seemed the fan was fully aware of what just happened as well.

After the game, James was asked about the exchange with the fan.
He spoke candidly about what happened in that moment.

According to James, the fan yelled “one more rebound” which got his attention.
So when he was done cleaning the glass, James made sure that he acknowledged that he was listening.
