LeBron James’ first points as a member of the Los Angeles Lakers were emphatic ones.

James threw down huge dunks on consecutive possessions early in the first quarter of the Lakers’ game against the Portland Trail Blazers on Thursday night.

James finished his first quarter as a Laker with 13 points on 5-of-6 shooting with three rebounds and the steal that you saw.

They’re going to love him in Los Angeles. So will TV executives at TNT and ESPN.
