There's a reason why the Los Angeles Lakers were immediately dubbed as playoff locks the moment LeBron James signed a four-year deal with them last year. He's such a supreme basketball player with his scoring ability and court vision. He put that on display once again as the Lakers squared off against the young Sacramento Kings. The play in question not only showcased LeBron's passing skill, but also his connection with young power forward Kyle Kuzma.

The play started with James moving to the post and Kuzma moving up. It seemed like a handoff, but the Lakers just sent it through his own legs because he trusted Kuzma would be there.

It's an incredible display of court vision from LeBron. It also shows just how familiar he's become with his teammates' tendencies to be able to make the pass.

The Lakers are currently holding a slim lead over the Kings, but LeBron should be able to help the Purple and Gold to the dub.
