LeBron James Made a Utah Jazz Defender Look So Silly With a Simple Move

LeBron James Jazz Utah (Organization) Utah Jazz John Collins Reggie Miller NBA Lakers TNT

Lakers star LeBron James might be the oldest player in the NBA, but he is still doing things on the court every night that make you think he’s back in the first few years of his legendary career. 

Utah’s John Collins learned that firsthand Tuesday night when James made him look absolutely silly with a simple move before walking in for an easy dunk.

James got the ball in the left corner and did a little twitch move that sent Collins in the wrong direction. Reggie Miller, who was calling the game for TNT, had the perfect three-word reaction to Collins’s terrible attempt at defense.

Come on, Collins! 

It was also a historic night for James, who became the first player in NBA history to score 39,000 points: 

James finished the game with 17 points in the Lakers’ 131–99 win over the Jazz.
