LeBron James Spotted Playfully Taunting Giannis Antetokounmpo During Lakers-Bucks Thriller… Los Angeles Icon Seen Counting as Rival Delays Free Throw Attempt

LeBron James of the Los Angeles Lakers was growing frustrated with Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo’s time at the free throw line, even though he was sitting on the bench.

Giannis is well-known for taking a long time at the charity stripe, frequently tempting the 10-second window during which a free throw can be made.

LeBron James decided to mock Giannis during a close game between the Lakers and the Bucks by audibly mentioning the number of seconds it took him to make a free throw.

One of the assistant coaches spotted James counting at a slightly slower rate, implying that he was moving too quickly. Giannis took approximately eight seconds to make his shot.

Whether or not Giannis was aware that LeBron was mocking him, he missed the shot, prompting James to dance on the sidelines.
