LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. — Los Angeles Lakers center Dwight Howard blocked a pull-up jumper from Miami Heat rookie Tyler Herro and then made an outlet pass to LeBron James to start a fastbreak with under eight minutes remaining in Game 1 of the NBA Finals on Wednesday night.
James dribbled up the floor and found a trailing Howard, who drove to the basket and drew in two Heat defenders before executing a nice wrap-around lefty pass to Anthony Davis for the two-hand flush to go up 26 in an eventual 116-98 Lakers victory.
