LeBron James has had many historic moments during his NBA career but some are more impressive than others.

On this day in 2016, James gave NBA fans a jaw-dropping moment that is still talked about today.

NBA History recounted the moment when James shocked the world with a massive chasedown block on Andre Iguodala of the Golden State Warriors in Game 7 of the NBA Finals.

Just moments later, James and his Cavaliers would win the championship.

Others said James’ block was “insane” and that he appeared seemingly out of nowhere at the perfect moment to stop Iguodala’s drive to the basket.

All-Time great play. Bron really just came out of thin air to block that. Insane

In a career filled with numerous amazing moments, many feel that this is the best of the best and what will be remembered long after James retires.

Best play of his career. Nothing u say will change my mind.

If Iguodala had made the basket, he would have broken the 89-89 tie, giving his team an advantage and momentum as the game came to a close.

That could have led to the Warriors winning Game 7 and the Finals, despite Cleveland’s amazing surge back into the series.

Since this iconic moment, James has created other chasedown blocks and it’s one of his signature moves.

But they all pale in comparison to this play, which gave his team possession of the ball and a lot of belief in the last few minutes of the game.

This block has been studied again and again since 2016 and is considered one of the greatest ever.

This moment is a particular Finals highlight that will never be forgotten.
