LeBron James helped the Los Angeles Lakers score their first victory of the NBA season Wednesday night when he put up 19 points, 10 assists, and seven rebounds.

James sat out the fourth quarter with the Lakers already 20 points ahead of the Phoenix Suns, winning 131-113 by the end of play.

With the Lakers ahead 74-54, James pirouetted through Suns guard Trevor Ariza and passed to himself before sinking a basket that stunned the match commentators.

With four seconds left in the second quarter, James threw the ball against the glass as a self-assist before casually scoring the rebound.
