Chicago (AFP) - LeBron James made a baseline jumper as time expired to lift the Cleveland Cavaliers to an 86-84 win over the Chicago Bulls in game four of the NBA playoff quarter-finals on Sunday.

Two-time finals MVP James caught an inbounds pass with 1.5 seconds left and drained a fadeaway shot from the left side with Jimmy Butler hounding him to even the Eastern Conference series at two games apiece.

Teammates mobbed James after he drilled the shot from 21 feet following the pass from teammate Matthew Dellavedova.
