WATCH: Lakers’ LeBron James Shows Why He is the ‘King’ in Game 4 Against Phoenix Suns

The champions Los Angeles Lakers are playing the Phoenix Suns tonight for the fourth game of their first-round playoff series. With a 2-1 lead already with the Lakers, this game is certainly crucial for the Purple and Gold to take control of the series.

The game has got off to an amazing start with both the teams going at it. While Devin Booker has had 15 points for the Suns so far, LeBron James leads the Lakers with 11 points. Given how well matched both the sides look, we might be in a cracking second half.

The Lakers have seen both of their superstars dominate in their last two wins. While AD took control on the offensive end, LBJ took control of the playmaking and the facilitating in the last two games.

Still looking a bit gingerly with his movement, pundits doubted whether ‘the King’ could bring in his explosive self to the game. James had certainly responded to these claims in some style.

With Davis still finding his feet in the game, LBJ has taken control of the Lakers’ offense and is doing it all. Early in the second half, the 36-year-old superstar went across the court with the ball. As the defense collapsed on him, ‘King James’ threw down an outrageous behind the back pass to Ben McLemore who knocked down the open jumper.

James continued his impressive play in the scoring the basketball as well. With 3:05 remaining on the clock, the 4-time MVP grabbed a defensive rebound and passed it to Alex Caruso.

With the Lakers on a three on two fast break, the ‘L-Train’ went up ahead at full speed. Caruso certainly knows all about show-time Lakers and put it off the glass for the King, who had an insane elevation and a thunderous dunk. Suns’ Mikal Bridges couldn’t do anything but look at the King’s greatness.

Despite all the show-time basketball, this game is still at the balance as the Suns have a decent lead. Will LeBron James continue to dominate and lead his team to a 3-1 lead?
