“(Referee) look right at me and said, ‘I didn’t see a foul.’ Man what! I give up man,” James wrote.
The incident occurred in the third quarter as James was being defended by Trail Blazers rookie Scoot Henderson. The guard appeared to take the ball away from James, and the Lakers star lost control of it as it went out of bounds.
