NBA playoffs 2023 - LeBron James fumbles open dunk

LeBron James has been responsible for some impressive posters over the years.

But that wasn't on display in the second quarter of Game 2 of the Los Angeles Lakers' conference final bout against the Denver Nuggets.

After securing a lob from Rui Hachimura, James went up for a signature breakaway dunk, but the ball slipped out of his hands.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell was among the surprised spectators.

Shortly after the blunder, "Father Time" was trending on Twitter. James totaled 10 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists in the first half, so it seems that he's safe from watching the hourglass.
