LeBron James' Game-Winner for Lakers Wows Fans as Luka Doncic Keys Win vs. Pacers

Timothy RappMar 26, 2025

LeBron James had quite the Wednesday, culminating in a very strange—but ultimately very clutch—performance against the Indiana Pacers.

After going three quarters without a single made basket, James scored 10 points in the fourth—including the game-winning tip—to lead his team to a 120-119 win over Indiana.

James finished with 13 points, 13 rebounds and seven assists, all while avoiding his first game without double-digit points in nearly two decades.

Luka Dončić added 34 points, seven boards and seven assists for the Lakers, while Bennedict Mathurin led a balanced Pacers' attack—seven players had double-digit points—with 23 points off the bench.

But it was LeBron's buzzer-beater that had social media going wild:

It was only fitting that James' wild day concluded with a wild win. The Lakers and Pacers kept trading runs. At one point, the Lakers went on an 18-0 run, but the Pacers had plenty of answers, including a 7-0 run in the final two minutes that seemed primed to seal the win for Indiana.

But James had the final answer, and on the same day he appeared on The Pat McAfee Show and eviscerated a few media members, most prominently ESPN's Brian Windhorst and Stephen A. Smith.

And as for Wednesday's game-winning tip? Well, that was also broadcast on ESPN.
