LeBron James has 0 turnovers in the 2020 Finals
King James is out on a mission and this crazy stat just shows his seriousness and dedication towards the same. LeBron has been extra careful with the ball, and even though he runs the Lakers offense majority of the times when he’s on the court, he had no turnovers in Game 2 of the finals vs Heat.
LeBron James had a special game: 33 points, 9 assists, ZERO turnovers. The last & only player in NBA Finals history to have at least 20 points & 9 assists with zero turnovers is Magic Johnson (1987, Game 1–29 points, 13 assists, 0 turnovers). Don’t take LeBron James for granted. pic.twitter.com/rj12JJvuyZ
