LeBron James of the Los Angeles Lakers is out at the team's practice facility heaving up shots like he's a football quarterback tossing passes downfield.

Per Ryan Ward of ClutchPoints, below is a clip of James throwing up full-court shots.

For those familiar with James, it's been sort of a ritual of his to throw up full-court shots like that. There have been times where he's done it in pre-game warm-ups. In fact, earlier on in his career, he shot a commercial featuring him draining around five consecutive full court shots like they were layups.

But more than the full-court heaves, is James ready to go after missing a month of game time? According to Lakers head coach Luke Walton, James ramped up his practice sessions.

“He did more … we did some more up and down contact today, so the day before was half court contact, today we got up and down a little bit, did some short scrimmages. He did that, and we just got a bunch of shots up,” Walton said, per Mike Trudell of NBA.com.

In short, a James return may take place anytime now. Fans should keep their eyes peeled as James can return back to action as early as Tuesday when they face the Philadelphia 76ers.
