LeBron James reacted to the clutch logo shot of Damian Lillard in Game 1 between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Portland Trail Blazers.
James called Lillard a true big-stage player after banking the shot, which help the Blazer take the momentum late in the fourth quarter.
“Obviously it’s a big time shot. It was a breakdown defensively. He makes big shots and takes big shots, commend him for that,” James told reporters.
Lillard and the Blazers opened up the series with a 100-93 victory over James and the Lakers in Game 1.
Game 2 will take place on Thursday.
