LeBron James is overseas on a promotional tour in Asia for Nike. He’s playing in a game, having fun and all the sudden finds himself in the middle of another one of his ”what’s up with that’ moment.

As you’ll see in the video below, this Asian kid dunks on him. Now before you check it out, you’re not going to hear canons sound off, but there are some special effects involving smoke. Just crazy.

Drum roll please.

And now, the world premiere of Xavier guard Jordan Crawford dunking on LeBron James at James’ basketball camp. It starts and repeats on its own so keep the pause button in mind.

It’s been in the news. Been on the talk shows. Now it’s in your living room.

When you watch the play, you’ll see it comes on and inbound play. In James’ defense, Crawford kind of caught him off guard, but Crawford not only dunked on James, but did so with two hands.
