However, Grizzlies guard Dillon Brooks’ unintentional attempt to put an end to it stood as a highlight. Though the 4x champion recovered soon, a jab to his “crown jewels” had led to dramatic scenarios, unfavorable for the Grizzlies.?

Closing out the rivals, James spoke about the violation as he revealed the team’s game plan after he suffered immense pain.

LeBron James talks about the early game ejection

Dropping 25 points and 9 rebounds along with a win, the 38-year-old made sure he gave a reply to Brook’s disrespect. The Los Angels Lakers center Anthony Davis did not do the same mistakes he did in game 2. Short of rebounds in game 2, AD dominated Jaren Jackson Jr. to grab some crucial rebounds as he ended the game with 31 points and 17 boards. However, the Dillon Brooks-LeBron James drama couldn’t catch a break.?

Early in the third quarter, Brook took a shot at James’s groin while attempting a steal. The scoring leader who fell on the ground instantly, couldn’t bare the pain for a while. Anyhow, the foul benefitted the LA unit as the Memphis guard was given a flagrant 2, ultimately getting ejected.?

However, Brooks’ violation did not seem to bother the King. Moments after defeating the Grizzlies, when asked about the ejection, James mentioned,?“Just focusing on the game plan. There was a lot of game to be played when that incident happened.?So just tried to get up, protect my crown jewels, and move on to the next play.”?Further James made sure he credited Ja Morant’s fight till the very end.
