NBA on June 3, 2018: A Historic Moment for LeBron James

LeBron James has made history once again. On June 3, 2018, the Cleveland Cavaliers faced off against the Golden State Warriors in Game 2 of the NBA Finals. The game was memorable not just for the Warriors' win, but also for James' incredible performance.

LeBron on Fire

Despite the loss, LeBron James was a force to be reckoned with. He scored 51 points, only the sixth player in NBA history to score 50 or more points in a Finals game. James also had 8 rebounds and 8 assists, nearly a triple-double. His performance was one for the ages, and one that will go down in NBA history as one of the greatest individual efforts in a Finals game.

The Controversial Play

However, the game was also marred by a controversial play involving James. With just seconds left in regulation time and the Cavs down by one point, James drove to the basket only to be met by Warriors' defender Andre Iguodala. James appeared to be fouled, but no call was made, leading to a turnover and ultimately, a missed chance for the Cavs to tie or win the game.

Warriors Take Control

The Warriors went on to win the game 122-103, taking a 2-0 series lead. Stephen Curry led the way for the Warriors with 33 points while Kevin Durant added 26. The win put the Warriors in the driver's seat for the championship title, which they ultimately won in a four-game sweep.

Despite the result, June 3, 2018 will forever be remembered as an incredible moment in NBA history thanks to the performance of LeBron James.
