Los Angeles Lakers star forward LeBron James has accomplished so much over his long career but there are a few things that he has never done. One of which is participating in the NBA Slam Dunk contest and he has received a ton of flak due to it over the years.

The two LA superstars were dominant on Tuesday against the Pelicans and have erased any concerns that they wouldn't mesh well.

LeBron James joined a club of one on Tuesday, while Luka Dončić joined a club of four. With 30 points and a Lakers career-high 15 assists, Luka Dončić became only the fourth player in Lakers history to post those totals in a single game in a 136-115 win over the New Orleans Pelicans.
