LeBron James used the backboard to throw himself a pass before grabbing the rebound and scoring against the Phoenix Suns.
James scored 19 points and handed out 10 assists as the Los Angeles Lakers sealed their first victory of the season, comfortably beating Phoenix 131-113.
The highlight play came in the final seconds of the first half. James brought the ball up-court before bamboozling Trevor Ariza with a behind-the-back dribble that allowed him to advance into the paint.
Once there he deftly shot the ball high on the glass before claiming the rebound and laying the ball home.
