LeBron James Drains Full-Court Shot With Ease During Practice At TD Garden
BOSTON (CBS) – Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James has proven in his career, and in the first round of the NBA playoffs against the Boston Celtics, that he can do just about anything he wants with a basketball.
Even on an off day, James provided yet another example of that.
The NBA shared a video clip on its Vine account of James effortlessly palming a basketball and throwing it like a football from one corner of the TD Garden court into the hoop on the other end.
James' shot soars through the air and hits nothing but net when it arrives at the hoop.

James' teammates can be heard admiring the shot, which took place as the team practiced for Sunday's Game 4 against the Celtics.
Widely considered the best player in the NBA, James has proven why so far in the first round. He has averaged 27 points, 8.4 rebounds, and 6.4 assists per game as the Cavs have stormed to a 3-0 series lead.
The Celtics will hope to fight off elimination on Sunday at TD Garden as the two teams play beginning at 1 p.m.
