This dunk seriously might be LeBron James’ best of his entire career

This is just filthy.

LeBron James, in his 15th season, basically hasn’t slowed down at all. The best basketball player in the world might have just thrown down the best dunk of his career on Thursday against poor Jusuf Nurkic as a 33-year-old — but we’ll let you be the judge of that.

Oh my goodness. Why would you jump, Jusuf. Why would you ever put yourself in that position against a unanimous top-three basketball player to ever step on the court.

It’s hard to say if this is James’ best dunk just because he has had so many, of course. He entered this game with 1,706 dunks in his career, if you’re wondering. That leaves plenty of room for dunks like these.

Are those better? It’s pretty much impossible to assign a winner, though I’m partial to his lefty dunk over Al Horford and the Hawks, just because I’ve never seen anyone throw down a dunk quite like that. They’re all amazing. LeBron James remains very good at basketball, and if you see him coming towards you, just don’t jump. It’s not worth it.
