LeBron James accidentally got his chalk toss in Kevin Durant’s face before Team USA’s exhibition game against South Sudan

Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James has been doing his signature chalk toss before games for a very long time.

However, his Team USA teammate Kevin Durant wasn’t expecting to catch a cloud of the dust in the face after James did his chalk toss ahead of Saturday’s exhibition game against South Sudan ahead of the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Durant must have taken a good bit of the chalk dust to the face, as he immediately reacted and rushed away to try and get the dust out of his eyes after James accidentally threw it in his direction.

The Phoenix Suns superstar wasn’t set to play in Saturday’s game because of a calf injury, but he definitely got something to remember from this exhibition contest anyhow… a whiff of James’ classic chalk toss.

KD got all of LeBron's chalk toss 🤣
