During the Los Angeles Lakers’ dominant win over the Dallas Mavericks on Christmas Day, four-time MVP LeBron James converted a beautiful fadeaway over rising superstar Luka Doncic.

On Saturday, James likened the sweet move to Michael Jackson’s iconic footwork.

The Lakers captured a massive 138-115 Christmas Day victory over the Mavs on Friday.

The star-studded contest was centered around James and Doncic.

James, 35, collected 22 points, 10 assists and seven rebounds in 31 minutes of action. On the other end, Doncic put up a team-high 27 points and seven assists.

While James poked some fun at Doncic with the fun move, he has a ton of respect for the international standout. Doncic was humbled that the four-time champion wanted to sign him to a shoe deal.

The Lakers face the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday.
