WATCH: LeBron James drains shot on attempted alley-oop

LeBron James can do a lot of things. But early in the second quarter of Game 3 of the NBA Finals, he scored on an alley-oop — when he was the passer. Maybe it was the concussion he didn’t suffer, but his pass wasn’t quite on target.

Or it was.

LeBron was trying to hit Kevin Love on an alley-oop. Unfortunately, he got the ball a little too close to the ball a little too close to the hoop. Fortunately for his Cleveland Cavaliers, it went right in.

It actually worked out great for the Cavs. They not only got credit for the basket, but Ian Clark also fouled Love on the play.

Love hit the free throw for the unique three-point play.
