Watch: LeBron comes up clutch, gives Lakers win with tip-in at buzzer

LeBron James had one of the worst shooting nights of his career Wednesday, but the NBA’s all-time leading scorer still managed to come through when it mattered most.

James’ tip-in at the buzzer gave the Los Angeles Lakers a 120-119 victory over the Indiana Pacers.

The game-winning tip, off a Luka Doncic miss, was just the fourth field goal of the night for James. He didn’t hit a field goal in the first three quarters — the first time that had happened in his 1,553-game career, per ESPN’s Dave McMenamin — entering the final frame with just three points on 0-for-6 shooting.

James, in his third game back from injury, came alive in the fourth, though, scoring eight straight points for the Lakers at one point. He extended his epic 10-point streak in the process and saved his best for last:

The game-winning buzzer-beater was the eighth of James’ career, including playoffs, bringing him into a tie with Kobe Bryant and Joe Johnson for the second most all-time. Only Michael Jordan has more, with nine.
