ESPN shows the moment LeBron James faces the commentator after a great three-point shot on live TV against the Nuggets

ESPN announcer Bob Myers told viewers that LeBron James looked at him after a big three-point shot against the Denver Nuggets.

The moment occurred just before halftime in the first round of the NBA playoffs.

The Nuggets tied the game at 57 with four seconds left in the second quarter.

Lakers great Anthony Davis threw an inbounds pass to LeBron, who caught it at midcourt and made a long-range three-point shot.

The 39-year-old drilled the attempt with 0.4 seconds to go before the break.

And the Nuggets fans were surprised by the shot, as was ESPN commentator Bob Myers.

“Wow… I mean, wow,” Myers said as he laughed at the impressive play.

The shot gave the Lakers a 60-57 lead as time expired.

Myers then told viewers that James seemed to look at him after the three-pointer.

“I was laughing because after he did it, he looked back at me,” he said.

A replay showed James taking the shot, walking back and appearing to look in Myers’ direction.

“It looked right in front of us. He just nailed it [and] he looks right here,” Myers said.

It was Myers’ first playoff game broadcast.

He was an extremely successful general manager of the Golden State Warriors.

Myers won four NBA titles and was a two-time NBA Executive of the Year.

But he stepped down last year to pursue a TV role.
