LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, Kevin Durant light up NYC scrimmage

Voice of the Toronto Raptors Matt Devlin joined Sportsnets Starting Lineup to discuss the recently released NBA schedule and the changes for this year and ESPN predicting that the Raptors will finish sixth in the conference.

Last week, LeBron James took to Twitter to find somewhere to hoop. After exchanging a couple tweets, he settled for a gym in New York City with an all-star cast ready to give him his run.

Carmelo Anthony and Kevin Durant joined James at NYC’s Life Time Athletic at Sky, helping the former four-time MVP put up quite the highlight reel.

Other NBA players like Cavaliers teammate J.R. Smith, Lance Thomas, Dahntay Jones, Enes Kanter and Marshall Plumlee were also present for the pair of sessions.

Just like during a regular-season NBA game, the trio of all-stars were able to put up buckets at will against their competition.
